Well guys, it is with some sadness that I have to announce I am giving up the business. Work has been slow recently and after a fall from a ladder I jarred my back and had to have some time off. Money is tight and rather than delve into my pension I am getting a job again, light duties but not...

Just been watching this series on TV and wondered why they made it? It is almost a scene by scene copy of the Bridge with the channel tunnel replacing the bridge! :shock: In the second series there is a scene that is very very similar to the Andre Breivik killing of students on the island in...

I got this finished the other day. My customer had seen a similar one I built and asked for this with provision for files in the two bottom drawers. He also wanted it transportable so the top and upper drawers are separate from the pedestals. It is made in AWO with a 2 pac clear finish. Drawer...

A friend of mine suggested online shopping for my groceries as it saves time for busy guys like ourselves. So with this in mind I thought last week I would try it. So on to Tesco's website and register for it....no...I tried 5 times to open an account but each time it wouldn't accept my chosen...

I have just finished this for a customer to house his golfing kit. it will have a red cedar colour finish applied and a locking bolt on the doors.

I have just about finished this desk for a client. They wanted rustic looking drawer fronts and door with a smooth finish on the rest. My customer is going to put a finish on it. :D I am now waiting for one more handle which they missed off the order! :roll:

I started this job on Monday. It is another set of pull out under stairs cupboards. I took a template of the stairs last week which you can see in the background. I then made the face frame up allowing for some trimming when on site. With these being such large units I am making frames to...

I am in the process of making a small set of drawers for a customer. I have already made and fitted a large cabinet, small wardrobe and desk and now the set of drawers to fit under the desk.

I got another fill in job yesterday for a gate. I must be getting good at these as this one only took me an afternoon to complete. :D I shall be fitting it next week along with hanging two doors. :D

I made a start on this bed yesterday. This time is is a child's bed with a carriage design. The wheels took some making! The frame was much easier being a basic design. Should get a start on the sides tomorrow. :D

I have been building a couple of cabinets last week. One is a tall unit for files and the other is a small wardrobe to fit over some stairs in a box room. Again these are made in MDF and painted with Morrells 2K. There is a door to go on the tall unit and a rail to fit into the small robe.

I have been making this rack for a friend today. It is for his niece's wedding which is tomorrow so a bit of a rush job. Anyway it didn't turn out too bad in the end. Back to the cabinets tomorrow. :D

I made a start on this computer desk yesterday. All pine and I am glad to say the customer is going to apply the finish. :D it will incorporate slide out shelves for the scanner, keyboard, and printer. It also has a small drawer and cupboard with adjustable shelves. Should be finished...

Thought I might buy this and combine my love of bikes with my love of wood. :lol: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/321823615230? ... rmvSB=true

Just seen the latest advert for the oak company on TV stating 'No veneer in ere' and thought to myself their correct it's all offcuts instead. :lol:

Just got this cupboard finished this afternoon....or so I thought as the customer came into the shop and asked if I could paint it along with the under stairs slide outs I have just fitted for him. After some discussion I agreed to hand paint the interior of the slide outs as they are already...

Well I am back after concentrating on some general woodwork to boost my funds. Earlier this week I made a start on another set of under stairs cupboards, oh ho! This time I took Bob's advice and started with a template. This one is to be three slide out units and I got stuck in making them. I...

I got back to this job today for another unrelated small job. While I was there I took a couple of shots of the cabinet now it is full.

Today I have been out fitting some pieces I made at a terraced cottage. One of the units is the tall corner cabinet I posted on here recently and as usual I was expecting problems with non square corners and had taken some trim strips to account for this. So I was astounded when it fitted...

I made a start on my next job yesterday, some under stairs cupboards. These will have push to open doors in a shaker style and a book case with a set of drawers below. these are all in painted MDF again. I got as far as building the drawer unit carcass and the drawer fronts. I then got all the...
