New summer house project.

[videojetman]

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

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.

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.

What are you planning for roofing?

i will be using the same tongue & groove floorboard on the roof then covering that with cedar shingles.
the loglap cladding will be delivered tomorrow.

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!

Maybe with the exception of Weymouth!
