A garden table -

Saw the first picture, laughed because I thought you were taking the piss- then saw the finished article and really like it. Great idea, nicely implemented!

I'm a big fan of making things and always like threads like this. I'll add some photos when I get home.

The Toylander Jeep is really inspirational. I have a 7 month old and I'd hope he would love something like this. Might buy the plans and maybe build it for his 4th or 5th birthday. I'd paint it the same colour as my own Land Rover, so we could have matching cars! I'd probably need 6 months to build it!

Recent projects include:
Mains Fuseboard cupboard in MDF plus boxing in of the cable run from the floor. Looks quite neat, but I have to cut the carpet and fit new skirting boards to finish it off.

Gate infill panels. Needed some steel infill panels to cover the hinges and stop people being able to peer into the driveway through the gaps. Got a steel fabricator to bend the metal sheet for me, but it's still involved some customizing from me to make them work. Should look really good when they are fitted and will be the final piece of the gate installation. Hopefully it will just be servicing after this!
