- Mark out the area and dig the top layer of soil, trying to get the ground as flat as possible.
- Build a timber frame to size.
- Measure out 4 rows of 3 blocks to create good weight distribution and lay in place.
- Underneath each block, dig around 50mm wider than the blocks and about 150mm deep. Fill the hole with pea gravel until it’s flat.
- Place timber planks along the rows of blocks and see how level it is. Add or remove blocks where necessary. If it’s only a small difference, use shingle underneath the timber until it’s level.
- Nail your timber shed base to the timber planks to create a sturdy base for your shed.
Mallaig
Mallaig is a port in Lochaber, on the west coast of the Highlands of Scotland. The local train station, Mallaig, is the terminus of the West Highland train line (Ft William as well as Mallaig branch) and also the town is connected to Ft William by the A830 road-- the "Road to the Isles". The town of Mallaig was founded in the 1840s, when Lord Lovat, owner of North Morar Estate, separated up the farm of Mallaigvaig right into seventeen parcels as well as encouraged his lessees to move to the western part of the peninsula and rely on angling as a lifestyle. The population and local economic climate expanded swiftly in the 20th century with the arrival of the train. Ferries operated by Caledonian MacBrayne and also Western Isles Cruises sail from the port to Armadale on the Isle of Skye, Inverie in Knoydart, and the islands of Rùm, Eigg, Muck, as well as Canna. Mallaig is the major commercial fishing port on the West Coastline of Scotland, as well as during the 1960s was the busiest herring port in Europe. Mallaig prided itself back then on its famous generally smoked kippers, the fishmonger Andy Race still giving genuine oak smoked kippers from the manufacturing facility store on the harbour. Mallaig and also the surrounding area is a preferred location for vacations. Most of the community talks English, with a minority of residents talking both English as well as Gaelic. On top of that, conventional Gaelic is still shown in Mallaig Primary School to pupils who select to find out the language.
