Mark - good plan but the top is able to lift up (well will be when I get hinges) and thus I can chuck rubbish in it without pulling it out! Pulling it in and out is a doddle too

Vol - a shed for bins!

Well Done

Good idea as well, I hate seeing bins and rubbish outside the house.

This thread doesn't have enough photos though

Can't wait to finish it

I have never liked bins outside, especially when it's recycling stuff that can get wet and blow about and things. Going to make an inner shelf on the right hand side to prop the food waste on as well. Cor they food waste bins honk. Totally gross!

Tomorrow I'm having a tidy up and will take some interior photos of where I'm at!

Furniture arrives on Thursday so by Friday I will have wardrobes and drawers and actual homey things! Exciting

Tomorrow = start tiling kitchen (hopefully will do all of kitchen tomorrow and then grout during the week), punch nails down in dining room/kitchen, concrete fireplace in prep for tiles, box in two sets of piping.

Should... get the above done. Mind, I'm having a bit of a dire time with my lower back. Keeps giving way if I bend in a certain way and I kind of just collapse. Need to squidge seeing chiro in somewhere.

Be careful. If you mess up your back then you won't be able to do up all these houses you plan to. You only get one back, look after it!

Edit: just seen new thread

Tink - yep I am always mega careful as I can be

Hate back problems, thus telling postie people to shove their parcels where the sun don't shine

Was causing too much stress on my back! See Sport thread - going to the chiro!

Vol - Heh it's not that important that's why I built it on my "day off" from DIY! It was more of a fun experimental thing and a bit of a wanna prove I can build something big and woody

It will look fab when finished and painted up! Doesn't half smarten up your bin area too! I do, however, have splinters galore from it! Had a beauty 1cm splinter on Saturday... it was gross!!!

My life's a bundle of joy, I normally have one day off a week from DIY (today was that day - no DIY at all!) and the rest of it I work 8am tl late on DIY

Good thing I love it

I dislike DIY. I really hate it if I haven't got the right tools for the job, but otherwise I merely dislike it.

Although I like spannering away on the motor, which is a kind of DIY....

I got to say, having seen her house in person...she can do up my house any day of the week!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Speaking from 2 years as a junior architect...awesome work!
