A Long Day!!!



Well, it’s been a very busy day. Dad & I have basically worked from 9am till 11pm. Going to be glad of the fact the clocks go back tonight!!

Started off by double checking the measurements I did last night. Also used the flexible tile trim to “join the dots” forming nice smooth curves. Then used the jigsaw to cut out all of the pieces. Having cut the first 5 pieces we used them as templates for the next 15. Managed to blunt 2 jigsaw bits in the process though!!

Having cut out the pieces we used a combination of tools (hand plane, electric plane, rasp type plane) to shape them up so they were all the same size. Also took the opportunity to drill the holes for the ties.

As if that wasn’t enough for the day we managed to get a few of the butt-joints epoxied and taped.


I’m knackered now!! Off to bed
