Not sure of the technical definition, but Mitzy may have hit upon something...in my mind a shed is where genteel southern ladies store their gardening tools...a shop is where work (among other things) happens...so maybe we have shortened workshop into shop. In Texas strangers go to a store to spend money btw

A store is where you keep things for 'ron ;)
 
SO Mittzy . . .
The size has NOTHING to do with the the name shop or shed.
If I'm making and selling koolaid from a 8'X8' assembled building - it is a SHOP.
If I put up a 60'X40' building to park motors,cars and a wheelbarrow in - it is a SHED.
Period.
Have I got it correct now, Mate???

I know what your saying Bul... But who the *** buys koolaid:rolleyes:

see meaning of shed - covers ALOT of variables - I think we are ALL correct, I know it doesn't make a good debate but....... Who cares.
You got room for your stuff - that's all that really matters - AND yes I my have shed envy:inlove
 
Shops in Australia are where you buy groceries , car parts , furniture .. every retail item really.

Sheds are structures that are erected solely to store and work on machinery, cars, bikes etc.

So if you wanted Kool-Aid you would go to a shop .. if you wanted to borrow a mates socket set or long nosed pliers you would go to his shed.
 
Yes this is my shed you can't buy anything there so it's not a shop and it's not big enough. It's 235 square metres of shed or for you Americans 2530 square feet of shop.
