Gee thanks Anti. It's nice to see you get some amusment from it.
Yesterday - Cut that big side panel after carefully shaping the profile and re checking measurement in 86 F heat. Only to find out oh SH........ Dam I cut the wrong side.
It being my last piece I chopped it off and will have make a join now with scrap. WHAT A B......
no, "blow" I was going to say.
I am getting there, in bits and pieces. The doors for the other side oh hum 1 peice missing, then needed profie holes drilled. So I hope 4 trips to Bayswater 15 mins away will evetntually get the lot together.
Although my fun didn't stop there try fitting stoppers for a door with 15cm width - no room for drill etc. you wouldn't of wanted to be around at that stage - grunting and groaning and plenty of... well just use your imagination. All that for a tiny door.
2 hours latter fitted the next one including black trim board - great enjoyed working under normal conditions again. Moving on to the next one - the next set back, hinges wont work for the idea I had to open it downwards, another trip to Bayswater.
