not sure about price for blocks mate but you want a 4 foot level, stabila are what we use but they are expensive ,so if i were you i'd get a stanley or draper or one of the cheaper stabila but it wants to be 4 foot, any of these will be fine you'll also need a trowel , lump hammer ,bolster chisel ,tape measure ,string line and a length of 3" * 2" thats straight for using with level think that covers it if you have any questions give me a shout and i'll try and answer them for you

Thanks again Brickie,will keep those names in mind,looks like car booting days are back for now....

Higgins, there no paticular name to look for. just look for non drip cladding. Kingspan stuff tends to be insulated, for industrial buildings etc, so thats really dear. I dont know if your in ireland or uk but if in ireland look up tegral or euroclad. theres lots more companies doing it too. piece of piss to put up. just hire out a tech screw gun grom hire shop, get the tech screws and it'll fly on.

 

I'm gonna put cavity blocks about 3 to 4 foot and sheet the rest. You dont need to get non drip for the sides. i built a shed here a few months ago, 40 foot by 15 foot. Got the frame made and four of us had it finished in a day and a half. It flies up if ya dont have too much block work to do.

thanks Jaykay,haven't finalised my plans yet,i'm keeping it as simple as possible.large workshop one side,kennel at one end which i'll try to incorporate as much space as possible for a run.Did you find out what to use for the floor for your run?
