Oak cart lodge build

[murdoch]

Hi Andy
I was going to have the posts sit on brick pillars but was worried that if the posts didn't come down perfectly then they wouldn't sit centrally. To make sure the pillars are central I made some adjustable metal legs which are bolted to the bottom of the posts, then when everything was in place they were bolted to the foundations. The brick plinths were then bricked around them.

Hope you understood! I may have gone over the top a bit

Yes that makes perfect sense! Thanks.

Just out of interest what size draw dowels did you use and did you buy them in or make them ? if it's the latter how did you do them...nice job by the way..
