I decided to buy a shed which I've moved to my garden ready to put together today. I've been looking at base options and I've decided to put mine on a timber frame with those plastic adjustable feet.
Shed is going on our patio.
Looks like you are fixing your timber frame to the concrete?
It's better to build your own and probably a bit cheaper but for £480 I'm happy with the kit supplied. I can modify if required.
 
I had one price of £900.
Its a 7x4 so small.
I'll follow your build with interest
 
I'm going with 12 x 6. I think I'll end up spending more, but I'm going to over engineer everything I'm planning on adding power and ethernet to have a camera and WiFi for a couple of smart switches and sensors.

Don't forget to insulate, ventilate and go overboard on security. :)
 
Did you slope the base edges outwards to prevent water sitting under the wooden frame?
 
No, the base is level. But the outer cladding is wider than the base so the water doesn't touch the base at all.
