i cant believe what im seeing!!!!!! a guy reading instructions!!!! great video, i have a similar thing called a shed in a box. not used it yet but ive had its 2 years lol
Hello again David. Happy New year to you. I have now had a chance to look through some of your videos. I can tell you now, you've already made my planned projects for this year so much easier starting with this Clarke structure. Thank you very much. I wish you excellent health and happiness and please, keep making your awesome videos.
Be easier using a jack handle off the car to drive those turning stakes in the ground, thanks for the build, ooh it's new year in two sleeps, hope this New year is better than the last ones we've had ♥To all who read this♥
I’ve got a Clarke tent and it’s saved my classic car from several winters. Be aware the cover rots from UV and after 4 years I needed to replace it. Note, Machine Mart/Clarke will sell you a replacement cover for around half the cost of a new tent. All in all a great piece of kit.
That’s such a good design! ( the mistake most people make with car covers is laying the canvas against the bodywork which just holds water which accelerates the rust really quickly.
It has survived both of the storms, I do have a ratchet strap inside the centre of the doorway fixed to a thick rubber belt going over the apex of the frame which I ratchet down to a loop fixed in to some thick slabs. This is inline with the doorway legs so any force I create when doing the strap up will go down the legs and not bending any of the ridge tubes. Don't know if this has helped make it survive but it made me feel better 🙂👍
Hi David thinking of buying one of these so great to see how it was erected. How is it now? has there been any issues over the winter/summer. What about the anchors would the corner ones be sufficient > cheers GN
Hi, I did a bit of an update on this in one of my videos but can't remember which. Yeah it's lasting great but I have got a ratchet strap inside holding it down in the centre of the doorway. This is to give it some extra holding down in gales etc. Condensation will form on inside of roof unless you have a solid floor or put a good quality tarpaulin covering the ground.
Great video, I have been told the paint on the tubes rubs off easily and goes rusty with the cover rubbing on them, I would give it a good coat of Hammer right paint and letting it dry before putting the cover on, this could always be done at a later date. Regards
Thanks for the advice Paul, I have also heard the cover ends up with holes wearing through where it goes over the tubes on the roof. Thanks for watching 👍
Hi how is this holding up? Cant decide between this or shelterlogic 10x15. Also the lack of ventilation puts me off slightly. What are your thoughts on this Cheers
It's holding up well, I think the ratchet strap and rubber loop I have holding it down is stopping high winds from causing any damage. Also the large ground sheet I have on the floor stops any condensation 👍
Mine is okay as I have a ratchet strap permanently going to a rubber belt which is going over the frame at the door end and strapping down to concrete slabs. If I need to get the car or anything wide in I just loosen the strap hook it to the side then reattach it down after I have what I need inside. 🙂👍
I bought the biggest one for my wifes birthday do . 20' x 12'. Bloody brilliant. Took all day to put up . Only just took it down after four months just in case the tree fell on it. Good job I did as when the storm hit the tree fell down ( knew it would.). Bargain. Does anyone want to buy it for £500 ? Bridgend area south wales.
Hi Dan, parking my car in it at the moment so I don't have to scrape the ice off the windscreen in the mornings. Going to be good to work on the cars out of wet weather. Get condensation inside, this should be reduced when I slab the floor. Thanks for watching 👍
Are you related to the late, great Duncan Norvelle because you do so much sound like him. You could, I suspect, make a fair living by doing voice overs in his style. Chase me, chase me.!!!
I wouldn't use a a workshop or to store anything of value saying that it would be great to store furniture when decorating or a summer tent for meals outdoors especially if you don't put one of the walls up
Sorry but when it got to around 1.55 and you started using instructions and laying it out Couldn't take anymore " A man using instructions " what ever next 😂👍
Nice video, but on a personal note you do know your knife is illegal to carry don't you? lock knives are legal to own as long as they are kept at home and not carried. Offensive Weapons Act 2019. ruclips.net/video/PUYfd8hw1hQ/видео.html
Nice one, David. Would make a nice temporary workshop. Seems good an sturdy. Thanks for sharing.

That's superb David, it's ideal to work under. Great idea. Tony
Thanks David have thought about one of these as an extension to the work shop it’s given me something to think about
What a great idea David.
Ideal for working on the daughters car 👍
well done its really good to see people doing instead of paying other people to do it
I have one for my VW Camper. I’ve had it for two years now and it is very good.
A picture is worth a thousand words...

Tks for Sharing, nice Job.
You have the patience of a Saint, I think it's a great job you've done there 😀
Looks quite sturdy . Useful bit of kit 👌 👍
Cheers mate this has been really helpful
Nice work thank you for sharing
Good stuff David...
Cheers Paul 👍
Brilliant find, thanks, It'll save the birds from crapping on the gaffers car👍
Thumbs up,looks handy!thanks.
Great idea, that’s gonna keep you dry david 👍
I’ve just bought one.
Strap it down with ratchet straps 🙂👍
@@InTheWorkshop Good idea.
Thank you.👍🏾🇬🇧
Pretty neat!
Ideal starter home for the rubbermen?
Great video!
2 years ago it blew away
Be great for camping
Thinking the same, with a wood burner and some lagging, wooden flooring made out of pallets, happy camping ♥
just put one up myself . got a few tips from you cheers dave barrie
Nice bitta garage
looks more like a tent, but good job in putting it up
Looks good. Where did you get the site light from? Cheers
I've had it for years, it was from JTF in Lincoln. Don't even know if JTF is still going ???
Hi pal I'm really considering getting one but itl have to go down on concrete, what would be the best way to keep it down??
@aqibhuss2624
24 ins Screw in ground anchors.
I used rawlplugs and stainless steel screws on our gazebo
Hi, great ,that's what I am thinking of getting. Good info and has made my mind up. How is it holding up in these current storms?
It has survived both of the storms, I do have a ratchet strap inside the centre of the doorway fixed to a thick rubber belt going over the apex of the frame which I ratchet down to a loop fixed in to some thick slabs. This is inline with the doorway legs so any force I create when doing the strap up will go down the legs and not bending any of the ridge tubes.

Have a Beer on Anthony 👍

Great video mate, love to see the two best flags in the world, great content, always learn something watching your shows, Louie UK
Instant...
Really good video, that would be extremely useful as a temporary workshop if you have a big repair to carry out.
Instant compared to the ice age.
Excellent video,we're moving,and this is just what I need,where did you buy it please,hny
@@stephenabbot7905 Machine Mart 👍
Hi, how do the ratchet straps work. As I am putting mine on a concrete base so won't have the pegs.
You will need to screw/bolt down to the concrete
The ratchet straps that come with it just tighten the end tarpaulins/covers.
Brill it's arriving on Friday
@Gareth Norwood is it any good? Thinking of buying one for my vw t6.1
Yes it's brilliant for what I need it for. I have mine on concrete and bolted down.
Great video, I have been told the paint on the tubes rubs off easily and goes rusty with the cover rubbing on them, I would give it a good coat of Hammer right paint and letting it dry before putting the cover on, this could always be done at a later date. Regards

If you’re worried about high wind treat yourself to a couple of awning straps from a camping supplier
Hi how is this holding up?
Cant decide between this or shelterlogic 10x15.

Cheers

@@InTheWorkshop nice one thanks for the reply 👍
The question is - after the recent windy weather in the UK is it still standing and in one piece ?
lol…it’s 5 years ago…it’ll be in landfill by now
Hi david what’s it like on a strong windy day
Mine is okay as I have a ratchet strap permanently going to a rubber belt which is going over the frame at the door end and strapping down to concrete slabs. If I need to get the car or anything wide in I just loosen the strap hook it to the side then reattach it down after I have what I need inside. 🙂👍
Not a bad idea for a wood store.
What was the cost?
@billyflanagan9657 It was bought from Machine Mart so prices will be on their website. I can't remember what I paid as it was 3 years ago.
Did it survive the wind ???
@LeoStarman with the way I have it fixed as in the update video (in the description) it has survived numerous gales/storms over the past 3 years 👍
@ nice 👍
Great video you made that look almost effort less but I'm imagining it wasn't.
You're right Andy it wasn't effort less, at least I got help with pulling the main cover over 🙂👍
So its a large tent
why is it sagging in the middle?
Can you get a vw transporter 6.1 in it?
Probably not
I bought the biggest one for my wifes birthday do . 20' x 12'. Bloody brilliant. Took all day to put up . Only just took it down after four months just in case the tree fell on it.

Thsts a nice addition mate , how's it been dance u fitted it David
Hi Dan, parking my car in it at the moment so I don't have to scrape the ice off the windscreen in the mornings. Going to be good to work on the cars out of wet weather. Get condensation inside, this should be reduced when I slab the floor. Thanks for watching 👍
Its a tent 😂😂😂😂
If you make it drum tight the zips will fail in strong wind.

Its a tent
The term “instant” is a bit of a stretch
😂
So is garage lol
😂😂😂
That's what she said
If I had a garage or workshop I’d think I would want it secure and locked but anyone with a knife would be in there and quietly
Instant...😂😂😂
Instant? No way. Quicker to build a brick one!
LOL not for £300 complete mate!
I wouldn't use a a workshop or to store anything of value saying that it would be great to store furniture when decorating or a summer tent for meals outdoors especially if you don't put one of the walls up
😅
Just a large gazebo. Don’t think it will last long.
The term garage is a over statement,,,,,,,,it's a tent😅😂😅and I suppose the green is a golf course 😂😂😂😂😂
Not good in high wind
Yes it is , I’ve had one for six years , coped with all weathers
I'd rather buy a used shipping container.
Look at Gala Tents. They are better than that cheep old Clarke tents and tools they sell... Clarke stuff doesn't last 5 min....
No details no sale
Sorry but when it got to around 1.55 and you started using instructions and laying it out
Couldn't take anymore
" A man using instructions " what ever next 😂👍
To much condensation no good
What do you want for £350 brick build with aircon Doh
