Hi all we use a hot tub in the summer and decided we would like to use it all year so heres something to keep us warm.





Stained all the bits I won't be able to reach when it's assembled.

This is as far as I got before rain stopped play, looking forward to tomorrow.
There was a bit of swearing involved doing the door frame, I was holding 2 bits together and screwing at the same time (with a cordless screwdriver) and I mast have had so of the skin of my finger in-between the 2 bits of wood and when they pulled together they squashed that skin (that was very painful.

I just know how that conversation would go, it would be a very short one.

That is a lovely bit of construction there Ken!
There's just something about a pristine clean and smooth wooden building/model/diy that I really love. It's always a crying shame when the wood has to be stained or painted afterwards!
The love of it probably stems from my childhood when a bit of 'good wood' for a project was something that wasn't coated in mud with a family of slugs in residence from the garden - a bit that was but not rotten was deemed 'acceptable'
A beautiful looking room!

So our boss kindly gave us Christmas eve off (love where I work) so I glazed the summer house and stained it with sadolin unfortunately swmbo didn't like the colour, fortunately I agree, so we bought some cornflower stain and this is the first coat (which I must admit I like much better, goes with the cream really well)

afternoon kpnuts, has the boss (swmbo) given you permission to have your outside project to yourself or do you have to share??

OK 2 more coats of stain (one more I think would do it) 




Got the inside stained, got the electrics in.







And importantly somewhere to hang the dressing gowns



Our friend is coming round tomorrow (he owns a flooring business)

To put some 1/4 inch ply on the floor and half way up the wall then cover it with vinyl. 

Well the summer house is finished just the hot tub to add now.






Here it is in the box.
