Awesome mods, too!

Yeah, that sounds about right


I still very much enjoy the non-attacking/fleeing animals and the ability to summon a spriggan

Yes, and I am not sure if Bethesda didn't copy her idea with the "Animal Friends" perk in FO3 and NV. It is one of my favorites, so is the Witchcraft mod. And I actually like her idea with the Ferryboats better than my Marina mod; (where you had to rent a boat and ride the full tour, but could stop off at four landings along the way and a camp would be set up for you at each stop). SubRosa's Ferryboats, you come across them in the wilderness in your travels and can just use them - that is awesome, and much more realistic than finding boats everywhere that you can't use (like in the vanilla game). That was such a good idea, and keeps the player from swimming across and getting slaughterfish bites.

Update on the tractor garage:


We´ve spent a few days organizing it as we need to fit many boards, steel shelves and a bunch of miscellaneous things in it and pretty soon that space does not feel too big anymore, not that it ever did. All in all we now have two large and one small steel shelf up and no less than four wooden shelves for the boards.
We´ll get rid of some of the boards later that are not too great for anything other than firewood and that´ll free up some space for other things. After all, can´t have empty spaces anywhere, can we?


This year we´ll look into if we can get a smaller car garage up as well that we can use as a workshop. The problem is finding someone who can move it for us and get it into place. Also, money..

Hee! Just make sure that there's still room for Tractor!

We may have to build something new for it!


But it´s by the ´cavator where it really starts to get cramped because there is where we have all the boards. I should take a pic and post; there isn´t much room to mess around with the ´cavator´s arm

As of today we have begun digging in order to lay electricity (preferrably in a cable) from the cottage to the shed.


And that´s it


I forgot to bring the camera but I better do it next time and post some pics. If not, mALX will say it didn´t happen and we really need this to happen!

Pictures or it didn't ... AHA! I see!!!! Make sure one of the pictures shows the shed lit up with that electricity then,

Remember, you'll have to use the clockwork camera until you have that 'leccy stuff in there!

P.S. was the squirrel in the wheel not generating enough power?

Nope

Today Dad and I put up the framework to a 4m x 6m storage tent. It was a bit of a pain at the start but we figured it out. What´s left to do is even out the ground by the pillars, anchor it down and then of course put on the fabric which I think will be a little tricky. The tent is not too high but high enough and we can´t really have ladders against the framework.

We´ll see how difficult it´ll be

And of course I forgot to bring the camera along but I will try to bring it next time, as always


But here´s a pic of where we´ll lay down the cable to the shed! Not quite done as you can see for obvious reasons.

That's one sexy tractor!

I can't get over the excellent jobs you have done building these sheds!!!!! I so wish you were near and could help me add a deck, urk!!! Awesome job, Mirocu!

McB likes it too


Aw, you do me too much honor..

Pic one
Pic two
Pic three

Support poles and anchors were on today´s agenda. We have a few more anchor pieces to jam into the ground and then I guess it´s time for the tent itself. We´re not quite sure though which pieces we should use as anchors, the manual doesn´t specify and it isn´t obvious. I think we might have to make a phone call before we leave home tomorrow.

Wow, great progress mirocu. And mALX is right that your work looks top notch.

Thanks, but the same can´t be said about the tent. It´s up now and looks quite good, but there are flaps on all four corners (along the short sides of the framework) which we cannot fasten because there aren´t any holes and there aren´t any strips or anything else there. We´ll make a call tomorrow but we might have to improvise here. Slightest wind and the flaps starts to rise, can´t have that.

Well, at least we can start to put stuff in and we already have. One compressor and a steel shelf so far. Took pixies but I´m too lazy to upload and post them at the moment

My goodness mirocu, you are one industrious fellow! I'm guilty of a great many sins, but industriousness is not amongst them.

Purely out of necessity, I can assure you



Well, it is quite nice to work on projects with my dad. We don´t always agree on things but we most often have a good time


Edit: Hauled most of the stuff in the car garage over to the tent. Got a few shelves and cupboards up and slammed them full of the same crap garbage stuff as before

You don't do anything halfway, that is for sure! I can't wait to see the tent fully done, and am dying to know the plan for its use! It is most def a huge tent! Impressive, as you always are when you are building! You are an amazing builder!

I can´t take full credit here, Dad is definitely part of this project. But thanks

Here are some pics. Censorship has been added to protect the guilty innocent

Canvas time
Going up
More than halfway there (Whoooa! Living on a prayer!)
Done
We used the trailer as ladder support
First shelves are up

It was a bit of a pain to put the canvas up. It was heavy and kept getting stuck on everything, it even got a small hole in one place. It´s not a disaster though as the canvas is of no-rip design which means if a hole appears it won´t get bigger or tear up the canvas.

The tent is meant as storage for all the bits and bobs from my childhood home, including everything that was in the cellar and garage. There was a ton of stuff and I´m sure most of you can relate

A lot has been moved and the tent is already getting too small. We have to use our brainz and organize it, but that´s actually the most fun part in this project. I love doing that
