Ouch :( That's frustrating indeed!
Well I was supposed to drive of on holiday today, but just before I went
out the door the postman brought me a package... S@H with my roof and
red 1*x bricks! So I immediately postponed my vacation 1 day and went to
work :D
http://www.vanree.net/~javanree/lego/locloods/ , images loods25-28
The shed is just about done. I noticed that all the details I had as
interior made the building too crowded so I will add a smaller building
at the back (opening visible in the loods27 image)
I still need to reinforce the roof a lot, it bends under the smallest
amount of weight and I doubt it will survive transport. But all in all
I'm quite pleased how the building turned out.
