has anyone ever done an extension onto a wooden garden shed, mines got a bit full, and i have another unbuilt one, was just wodering could i just slap it onto the side.

Perhaps you could build the new shed on top of the old one and have a spiral staircase between the two. Or just dig below the old shed so it has a basement. Or fit casters to the new shed so you could tow it behind your car.

a 2 storey shed, i like that idea.

yes my grandad once did it, he had 2 sheds i think they was sumthing like 15x10 foot,
he put them side by side, bolted them together then made a doorway between the 2 inside, blocked 1 of the front doors off so it only had 1 front door and when you walk into that you had like an arch way inside into the other shed

is that what u mean ?

heres my shed at the moment, with its electric heater:


them windows were added into it:

you can see there isnt any sign of dampness anywhere, the chipwood holding up to it as well as toilet roll.
ive had a few really bad spots that had to be done again with plywood which if your paneling the inside of the shed is the stuff to use:

Can I borrow a 10mm ring-spanner please?

Shed-wise bang 'em together and bosh a hole through - just watch where the two roofs meet as it'll make a valley and be tricky to seal from rainwater leaks. If the structure goes a bit wobbly then beef it up with more timber

[Doggy]

Can I borrow a 12mm spanner to hammer onto a partly rounded-off 13mm AF nut?

Not part P registered, are we Farmer Pug?

the easy way would be to add the seconed shed behined the front one then all you have to do is remove the back wall of the first shed,job done.
still this does depened on the location of the shed.
