Building a shop
ChriX:
I did read through some information leaflets from the manufacturer and didn't find any mentions of that issue Pete, so I am hoping it's different stuff. I've also spoken to a lot of people and nobody has mentioned it. I'm not about to take it all apart and do it again (at least not without some evidence using the same wood and screws) so I'll just have to see what happens. The majority of it is 6x100 Goldscrews, and additionally the wood is going to be nice and dry so I am hoping that will prolong the life. Maybe I'll be back here in 5 years with a rebuild thread, but I'm hoping for more like 25! :thumbup:
A plus point though - if the walls do fall down, at least I won't have to do the floor again!

ChriX,
Maybe someone who has experience with the U.K. type pressure treated wood can add to this? With luck you'll be fine. The new types of chemicals used on our pressure treated wood is a large problem over here though.

most fixings in the uk have a coating as is req to meet building regs a lot are sheradised and have been for a long time all the nails used in nail guns are and have a hot glue coating to hold them as well as rings, you should not have problems with the tanalising used in the uk.

A quick update to keep things moving. Unfortunately the weather is holding us up a bit now, not too much yet though, still plenty of jobs that can be done indoors.
Got some lights - £75 for all of the below, which I'm pleased with!
We have also made it to roof level so have been making rafters this weekend (2x6).

A quick update, it's been a while what with Christmas, but we are still cracking on.
