Expensive rack for gear, not in my shed!

[Simon Davey]

I put up a five shelf  1200mm X 600mm rack from Screwfix. Also found a £15 rug rail in the barn, the screw holes actually lined up with the holes on the rack. 

I now have somewhere to hang my gear. 

Although my gear is now hanging in front of everything, sliding it along the rail is no hardship.

Looks like a mini version of sportsbike shop rack…starting off small?

I had to Google what a rug rail is. It seems to be a horsey thing. 

 

Interesting coloured walls in your shed. Very upmarket.

It's the beams that look interesting to me. Very sixteenth century.

Looks sturdy too.

It was a small barn, and the previous (upmarket twats) owners of the farm converted it to a snooker room, with an external, very well bolted door large enough to get a bike through.

We have just filled it with junk, turns out it makes a very good garage though.

The house is 17th century, the barn is similar age, but lots of old, non-original beams added.

It's not that nice in there, apart from our junk, I need to address the collapsed ceiling and rain coming in.

It is indeed, but I wouldn't lean too hard on it

Tis the blood of thy peasants, a stark reminder of what will become if they dont aby and pay on time to thy lord, suffer the wrath and pain of death from the giant pet spider that resides by the window ready for thy masters commands to have its next human meal.

 

is the rack holding up the wall/door?

From my very limited experience of Dobbins I think the rug goes over them rather than them reclining upon it. 

 

However I claim no expertise on these matters. My attempts this morning to feed donkeys carrots ended with a 3 year old granddaughter clutching a bag of carrots in the rain whilst the aforesaid beasts refused to move out of their shelter.

Yup, they're all wearing rugs at the moment, even though they only go out for a short while each day. 

It's nice for us to know they're warm enough. 

 

@RideWithStyles

I just placed it in front of an unused door. 

There's a four foot drop outside, where there used to be a loading ramp. 

[RideWithStyles]

Is that if you forget the drop?
