I've only two full height panels left, one being a metre wide and the other 35 inches, so that dictates the wall length!

Also I've drilled a drain hole in the exhaust stack as suggested by Kayzed1 - thanks  :thumbup:

I have had a few expensive Motorcycle exhausts go because they for got to do the hole at the low point.

You haven't lived until you've started a big diesel with no rain cap or drain hole!

Black oily crud EVERYWHERE...

I managed to get the angle iron for the return wall screwed up to the rafters, and hence drop a vertical to locate and fix down the floor angle.

It was great fun holding that one up under the rafters and screwing at the same time - it weighs about 30 kg - a combination of ropes and ladder balancing -  though I only dropped it once  :bugeye:

So next is to mark out and fix the two remaining panels - not really looking forward to it as both top and bottom slope AND the rafters need cutting round. Might need to make templates  :scratch:

Could you not use U channel top and bottom..infill the top and then slid the ends in, a couple of self tappers to hold them in place.
That would make it easy for when you need extra light to change the oil....and stuff.
