Today's project,made this for a friends birthday, it's so she can carry all her shopping inside in one go (long story I won't go into) not finished yet as this colour is only the undercoat,personally I would have stained and varnished it,but the young lady likes black. Which Sue told me after I had the handle stained.

Nice work Rick! My next project is a scratch built "fancy" little work shed in front of our water tanks, if I can get approval past the council Trish.

If I end  up doing it I'll post progressive shots.  :happydance:

Hope your health is getting sorted Rick.  :Pout:

You are reminding me I should move back home to Mum's place - farm land.   Plenty of space and buildings to do stuff like that in :-)
