The 3D Shed Builder has been built to run smoothly on most devices, but if it's taking a long time to load or the movement is staggered there are few things you can do to help improve performance:

  • Make sure your browser and operating system are updated to the latest version
  • Close any unused tabs when using the 3D Shed Builder
  • Turn on hardware acceleration (Google Chrome)
  • Clear out your Cookies and Cache
  • Turn off or stop unwanted processes
  • Remove unused Extensions (Google Chrome)
  • Reboot your router
  • Use a wired connection to your router

We're shed builders, not IT specialists, so we won't begin to try explain how to do these steps. However a simple Internet search "How to speed up Google Chrome/Microsoft Edge/Mozilla Firefox etc" or "How to improve your internet connection" will provide you with plenty of how-to articles and videos that give you detailed instructions. 

Here's a list of links we found useful:
