Bulkhead

Get some wood from the skip and chop it into bits

That thing on the front of my bench is a biscuit cutter – the clamp failed and the bit of wood shot across the front deck into my leg – it gave me quite a bruise!

Then lay it all out together

Pop along to the inside workshop and glue it all together by torch light – then take a photo with the flash to see the whole thing together

and wait.

This weekend I will trim off the bits that shouldn’t be there, sand it and then varnish it ready for fitting…..

  3. Amazingly it actually is. I have had some good advice in it that is to be sure. This is my first venture out in to woodwork so I need lots of guidence. I have no aptitude for it!

  4. I have a biscuit cutter too. I usually refer to it as my teeth.
