Great work. Looks good and ideal for its purpose. Where do you have it situated in your yard? Alongside the house or in the open?

thx mashby well thats pretty much my backyard lol, its only a lil courtyard i have but its out in the open where it can get as much sun as it can this time of year, dont really have great positioning in the yard but should be great in spring and summer as the roof is aligned in an east west position for the trees to get good sun but not directly on them

Do you do kits :lol: My missus is sick of the "spread" as I search for sun down the side of the house. Apparently I have taken over the area of the future courtyard :shock:

Wow, very nice. I wish I had woodworking ability like that mate. You should be proud of yourself.!!! I love the colour of the timber you have used as well.

Hi again and I reiterate my compliments on a job well done. Did you use a kit form to build the shade house or did you design and build it yourself?
