Under construction. Something a bit different...

[Ian M]

Just to let you know that I have not forgotten about this, just had other things to do....I did buy some wood to do the rest of the doors with yesterday but don't feel up to much. Man cold you know!

Well I can see that it has been three months (!) since I last posted in this thread.

So, Whats happened. The Man cold went and the fishing rods came out. So that kind of put the project on hold.. Also I was manning my self up to pay for all that sodding plexi glass!

Not an easy pill to swallow but having gotten this far and having made the doors in a very light construction, real glass would of been to heavy.

Any how, the worst part of £180 (yes one hundred and eighty pounds) worse off I finally got the doors sorted.

I have spent today making shelves. The two bottom small compartments have solid pine shelves with an Oak edging on the front, the upper one of the small compartments, has 3mm plexi glass with an oak edge at the front and back to stiffen it up- The Highest unit, with the double doors has yet to get shelves but they will be clear plexi glass and oak edging.

The wooden shelves just need a quick sand down and some white varnish on the pine part.

So its pretty much down. At last I can start to build again... Well not that I ever stopped, just sort of slowed down to a crawl.

Well All I need is a few shelves for the wide unit, but the smaller sections are done and filling up way to fast!!!

SWMBO even says it looks good. She didn't look to happy when I said that the second one will be easier, as I know how to do it now...then ran. Well walked fast!
