Hola,

Have just started again, moved to another plot.  Old plot was 80m2 and curved and was hard to manage so i gave it up for what i thought was a smaller plot which turned out to be a same size, but better site!

lol anyway have got a shed to go on but need to lay a concrete base for it to go on.  Already have a 3ft by 4ft concrete base there already but my shed is 7ft by 5ft.  So going to incorporate old base into new base if you get my drift.  Anyway the argument is what wood do i use for a temporary frame to hold the concrete in, some say 6 by 2 inch some say 6 by 1.  Any answers???

I did not use a concrete base for mine, just  rows of breezeblock where the struts were and then put a huge pallet on top of the blocks before the shed. There should be enough air circulating underneath to keep it dry and if i ever change plots, it does not leave a permanent block of concrete. could you not extent the too small base with some blocks?? Save a lot of work!!!
