It's not raining today, got any more plans Mick? Get out there quick before the rain returns!! heres what i did... first i stained the new cladding .. then i made the doors ... .. and then changed my mind and screwed the doors together .. as i think its safer having one door .... all that work... for nothing .... .. but still it is what it is ..... had to fit the lock and support bolts at this point as i needed to pack up ...i am so angree with my self for messing up the job . more staining needed ..plus a cover strip for the join in the door.... .. i should have just made the door in one peace and left it instead its messed up the finish ....im not happy with it but i have now run out of wood and money ..so it will have to stay like it... . more stain is needed to finish it off ...ill put more on today if it stays dry ...

We all live and learn Mick. Still, looks okay to me from here.
Whenever I'm about to make or do something a bit tricky, I remind myself "Measure twice, cut once". It just gets my mind focused so I'm less likely to stuff it up.

It just gets my mind focused so I'm less likely to stuff it up. yes i no what you mean stace.... but i thought i wanted 2 doors .... .. still it will look ok i just dont like the fact of all the time i waisted cutting the clading it took ages as i had to hand cut it all ...cutting long ways was hard work for me and i had to do 4 cuts like that ... its easy to cut to leanth plus i havent got any left over to re clad it so it will have to stay like it is .... no-ing me when i get more money..... ill just rip it off..... and re -clad it .. but ill see if i can live with it first... ;D.

It's her bed Mick as you should know by now and you're lucky she lets you share it!! Garden looks good, very tidy. Will you be putting any pots or anything on the shingle? How about a nice bird table?... looks like you could knock one up no problem, you've done really well with the shed.
