St Francis' summer shelter.
Thought I would add this in because I was pleased with the result.
Nicola's mum passed away early in January. She was always a keen gardener and over the years also rescued many animals. She had a small statue of St Francis of Asisi in the garden and when she died, it came home with us. I had walked around with the idea of making a small shelter for him to stand in, in the garden. This morning I popped down to the local pub who always has a pile of wood from fencing jobs waiting for the next bonfire. So I fetched a few old weathered feather boards. I also grabbed some 12mm ply from the garage and cot some to shape, making it up as I went along. Knocked up a nice AA road patrol house for St Francis. Also cut out a Cross on the bandsaw to fit inside the shelter. Once completed I posted him out on a bit of railway sleeper in the garden so he can keep an eye on everything. Nicola was happy.... she also cooked me dinner.
