C5 Shed
« on: 23, August, 2009 - 18:35:54 »
As many know I keep my beloved C5's out side, in the rain - in the wind - in the snow.  I have been looking for quite some time for some kind of shed that the c5's can live in.  The problem has been that the sheds have been either to big for the space that we have - or to small for the c5's.

Today I have found the perfect shed.  Its from B&Q made of the very same plastic of the C5 & (with a bit of a shelf yet to be made) - will fit both C5's in. 

Now I can relax as our C5's are safe from the elements.

Here's the info about the shed :- http://www.diy.com/diy/jsp/bq/nav.jsp?action=detail&fh_secondid=9371802&fh_view_size=10&fh_eds=%3f&fh_location=%2f%2fcatalog01%2fen_GB%2fcategories%3c%7b9372012%7d%2fcategories%3c%7b9372017%7d%2fcategories%3c%7b9372061%7d%2fspecificationsProductType%3dplastic_sheds&fh_refview=lister&ts=1251046108583&isSearch=false

And (as always) here's a pic of it





Its just a fit - no space wastage - lol

And now it holds two :)



I have made a ramp so I can push the C5 on the top shelf - I'm very happy with this solution.
