Lol, I don't think it's any extra here for colors but while you can add custom touches like you said or even paint it down the track

Uh huh, I'm spending way to much on some stuff but I've also picked up some bargains.
Just scored 6 3.6mm sheets of kauri ply for 60 bucks

still got some tidying up / straighening of edges bit they are getting there

Kids are slowing me down and my wife understandbly gets a bit mad at me disappearing to garage but she will learn the concept of teardrop time one day.

But thanks for the positive comments

Hi Felixx, you are flying along, well done. :thumbsup:
Silly question, as you probably have this organised already. But looking at your windows, what have you got to channel the rain water outside?

I'm glad the kids are slowing you down Felixx... they will most likely grow up and want to build their own some day. You're making memories and this time is fleeting... I know how much I miss mine. You can never get this time back mate...
Good going on the build... :thumbsup:

initial plan was to only camp on dry nights ! :?

Seriously I will use some plastic channel of some description, right now it is a case of seeing it all fits and getting it to a point I can camp with wee fella (even if it is in the yard the first couple of nights)
