i built one 2 years ago
300 notes for 5mx4m - do it yourself if you can its not difficult once you get going.
hire a cement mixer and a whacker plate
you'll need :-
hoggin all in sand
cement
fine sand
slabs
a spirit level
twine to make sure edges are straight
dig down 6-8 inches
fill with hoggin then whacker plate it down
mix some concrete and start laying slabs ensuring level and straight
finish off with cement and point up
sounds easy duntit!
