My townhouse is way at the back of a whole bunch of units, and there is no direct access to the back yard other than through the house, and there's a 4 foot drop on the other side of the fence in addition to the height of the fence. Anyone wanting to carry out a 10" LX200GPS will be very keen. Plus, there are open shelves in front of it reasonably full of "stuff" which would make it pretty hard to negotiate. It's a very tiny space!
I'm also planning in the near future to put a webcam in there so I can control it remotely from the warmth of the house, and secondarily, it can act as a motion sensing alerter when no one is home (which is basically never, but sometimes it happens!)

PS, but it is good to see how well its all come together.
Not bad considering the space we had to work with.
Yes - addition of the central support beam was an initial suggestion, and my current restriction is getting hold if the wife's car to transport it back from bunnings! Problem is that every time I go to bunnings, I come back with 6 times more stuff than I went there to buy (and often, not getting what I went there for in the first place!)

The "Turbotorium" opening ceremony/booze-up will be organised soon, primarily so you can bring some tools (my hammer, cordless drill and 2 shifters don't get the job done) and tweak some things for me!
