    Welcome break from the recent topics of discussion........

    Now, do I go for dip treated or pressure treated?

    Tongue and groove, overlap or shiplap?

    Pent or apex roof?

    Thanks in advance. Oh and Schopp Out (sorry, couldn't resist).

    I'd go for the penthouse. If you're just after a dip. Definitely the Tongue and groove.

    Thought you were rekindling some long lost half time “entertainment”.

    If you dont mind second hand Khaled has a large wooden structure he would sell to you

    Serious answer pressure treated for sure shiplap looks better but overlap is fine - most important is good quality wood

    Heard it's not too waterproof with some structural integrity issues. Or reading another review, it's fine and fit for purpose.

    Oh the decision to make

    It's not the size that matters, It's what you do with it that counts :)

    I'd go the minimalist route . The bigger it is the more junk you tend to accumulate . I have a full size garage and I'm not looking forwards to sorting it out . Looking like it's going on next year's jobs list .

    Also depends on how much of a hoarder your other half is, as I've recently come to realise!
