With other activities like drains and sewers and the like keeping me busy for a few months the only advancement for September was the arrival of the top hat to allow the internal lining to start at some point in time...
So, I ended up buying 25, 8 metre lengths of 64mm Top Hat for the princely sum of $1900 dollars from a mob in Perth that was selling it on special, Dynamic Steelform in Forrestdale.
And it cost $640 to get it from Perth up to here in Port Hedland, so $2500 just for the Top Hat...
For the insulation of the walls, I obtained 16 packs of Earthwool R2.7 HD High Performance Batts (90mm thick and 580mm width) through Perth Insulation Centre for $1800, and then road freight on top of that to get them to Hedland from Perth was again, another $700 buckeroos. But there was a slight issue with some wet bales so the company waived the cartage fee in the end.
And finally, the final piece of the shed lining puzzle game was the 19 mm Termiflor or yellow tongue flooring. A pack of this stuff was sourced from Perth Building Supplies for $2200. Which gets you thirty sheets of yellow tongue Termiflor 3600 x 800 x 19mm. And delivery to Hedland from Perth was $800.
For some reason I have no image of the pack of flooring...
So, towards the end of November, we were back making progress and started lining the shed...
Next post, the top hat goes around, the bats go in and the Termiflor goes up!
