Western saloon created using old shed

Hi, bought our place in Gawler in 2018 and it had a old green weatherboard shed in the yard. we used it for storage until deciding what we could do with it. we turned it into an old western saloon, unfortunately we are unable to download more pictures which would give real understanding of what we have started with and the final outcome. Just about everything we have done with this shed has been obtained from Bunnings.

Materials

Perma pine pailings ext

perma pine posts ext

Taubmans chestnut stain ext

V board interior lining

Laminate floors int

the list goes on etc

Tools

Nail gun

drills 

impact drills 

reciprocating saw

circular saw

paint brushes

 

Steps

Step 1

1 clean all the walls and have them free ready to panel with the perma pine pailings which we nail gunned and screwed into positiion

Step 4

4 Next we recycled the pavers from the rear of the house and used those for the path across the front of the saloon and made the steps leading to the saloon out of pine sleepers and recycled pavers

Step 5

5 we then lined the walls with v board which we lightly stained, we did the ceiling in perma pine pailings and stained to match the exterior. we built the bar out of recycled timbers and used iron.
