Grammar
Could you tell me the slight differences between them?
I think that the following three sentences are all grammatical and idiomatic and there is no any difference among them. Am I right? Thanks for your help. 
1. After we finish this I won’t detain you any further.
2. After we’ve finished this I won’t detain you any further.
3. After our finishing this I won’t detain you any further.

Hi;
Numbers 1 and 2 are ok. #3 is grammatically ok, but not what a native speaker would say.
I would also say "longer" instead of "further."
