OK amigos.

After a couple of false starts and some pretty decent earlier efforts, I have begun work on what I call "Project X". I plan to work pretty full steam on this over the next couple of months to have it ready to go when our warm weather starts creeping in.

After a recent total spring clean and a couple of bug bombs, I now have a large wooden shed with tin/perspex roof to transform into my home bar.

I will need to give consideration to our hot summers and cold winters, so any advice on insulating etc would be much appreciated.

At this point, I am thinking of lining the walls with MDF and insulating behind?

Also considering topping off with a thatched roof and outer bamboo matting along these lines if all goes well and $ permit:

I need to do a good deal of this on the cheap as funds are limited.

Will post some more pics of things already gathered soon. (bar etc).

Early work on the yard area:
