Small afternoon project
Posted: Sun Feb 27, 2011 2:15 pm
Been absent for a while after moving house, but I have a huge amount of work to do including doors, skirting, book shelves, loft, garage (soon to be workshop), garden, etc etc.
Anyway, just wanted to post this. Made this from some bed slats I left over (better than them getting chucked or going on the fire). Couple of hours with a tenon saw, mitre block screws and glue, and I came up with a shoe rack for the hallway. Total cost, screws and glue
and much more sturdy than anything I could have bought, as well as having something which fits the space perfectly.
I wanted to say a big thank you to big-all as well. He has helped me with tools and advice for starting all my projects, and without that I would have really struggled.
Hope to be able to post more as I get on with it
