I have decided it's time to build something out of wood again.
And building my bench was good experience.
So I took the old summer house down that was in place when we moved here 2 years ago.
Basically it was falling apart so it had to go.

The first pics are of the old summer house

Re:

So after a couple of days it is down and I have just built a new base.
I am very happy with the base as I'm no master carpenter.
Looking forward to seeing this develop.
I will be updating this as I progress.
Jeff.

Re:

Some more progress.
Finished boarding the base and built & fitted some of the wooden wall frames.
Hopefully get some more decent weather this week.

If you have a spare weekend could you pop down to Dorset and build me one :cool:

Free tea and coffee and all the biscuits you can eat supplied.

i'd love to, but the british weather is so unpredictable.
but i'm sure my wife would have something to say about that.
 
Dorset is just about the greatest place I have ever been, so I would load a ready made building on my trailer and head down if it wasn't more than it would cost to have it done locally!
