Got wood?


Carpentry Fest 2011 is well underway in our new (very old) house. I've just finished building my first staircase, which was an awesome bit of glory work - four days starting from rough timber and it's all done. Beats breaking concrete hands down!

We've used Douglas Fir from the local sawmill, which gives a great pinky-red colour. Infact all the floors use it too. Downstairs you can see some slightly fiddly plastering and a Flintstones-esque woodburner. Just one more flight of stairs and a kitchen to fit and we're in!
That's all, next time I'll stick to riding news I promise!
