discussion Pete's Garden Room

[stillp]

This is my next build - added it to the magic wand shop order to get a discount.
The pre-cut parts aren't plywood like the last ones I built, but more like MDF so a bit soft. time will tell if that matters.

Quite a bit more done:

Those little black and white lanterns (?) were a tricky folding job!

Built some of these by Nook , is this one Peter?

Great fun to do.

Oh yes, I had a vague memory of you building something very much like this and probably making a much better job of it. It's not a Book Nook, in fact there isn't a brand name that I can see.

Right, well once someone comes up with an idea it's copied. Found it hard at times Pete.Ended up with a lot of spare small items .

Well, it's finished. I didn't enjoy it much and I don't think the result was worth the effort - I would bin it but SWMBO likes it so it's staying! The instructions were a bit vague and in some place just plain wrong. One thing I do like is that the lights are controlled by a touch switch Behind the two concentric circles at the front. Powered by 2 AAA batteries.

Sorry about the lousy photos, I'll try to replace them later.

Looks good Pete. Those lights certainly make it .

 

[stillp]

Thanks John. If I bin it I might recycle the lights and the touch switch. Here's some better photos, with the flash enabled this time:

Now, what next?

Why not keep it in the house Pete, I'm "allowed " to keep two of the Nook models in the front room ! Too good to dump.

I just don't like it John. Send Matron round and she can have it!
