    Small shift at Pats to replace the decking and up cycle a table

    Was nice and sunny Friday so thats Pats decking up again, easier to replace than sand and paint.

    Pat had his cajun moonshine joojoo juice stilkl going for magic coating of all the timber, apprantly the recipe is a secret

    All squred up and sorted now


    We did have a nice old dining table to use for working from but its days were numbered.

    So in true upcycling fashin

    Table was duly attacked viciously with the rip saw, cant beat such tools. Makes cutting discs look tame

    Now re-purposed into two raised workbenches and the 4 ight angled legs turned into shelves, no point wasting good stuff

    So thats Pats back of garage sorted and no need to jam table in front of Mildred when she is put away

        Bob, he will soon end up with a garage like mine, shelves and stuff everywhere jammed intio the corners

        Loads of "safe" places to keep things then

                  Decking looking good thanks to John A. Ross

                  I started it over a year ago!
                  Been under instructions that if I miss this summer I'll have to find somewhere else to live.

                  Got rained off yesterday but dry today so hoping to get most of it finished today.

                    you have the new shed, add roof and the "dog house" is ready, wonder where that saying actually came from
