A few things I've done over the years  A window seat in an Arts and Crafts house that had been gutted of all its features when it was "renovated"  Pair of Mackintosh inspired wardrobes and chair in ash  Painted wardrobe for a boys bedroom  Sink unit in oak  Dog house  My own kitchen  Oak greenhouse  and a couple of chairs I made this summer |

Absolute Quality Woodsmith.
Love that greenhouse and kitchen.
Actually there isn't a thing I don't like, great craftsmanship.

I've just read what you wrote on the other forum.
I do admire a man of courage and principles, thank you.

Amazing stuff. It's all fantastic but my particular favourite is the kitchen.
Your comment about 'renovating' reminds me of a section in the Readers Digest book of home improvements called "Converting a Victorian House for the needs of the 70's" The entire chapter seemed to consist of people ripping out fine woodwork and replacing it with hardboard and orange paint!
I've often wondered how many hours have been spent putting it back.
Cheers

Thanks very much.
Courage and principles are a bloody nuisance though!! I might have won ;D
Yes it's copper guttering, I was told it would react with the oak but so far it's been fine

Are Northerners lower on the social scale than Paddys?
Seriously, greenhouse and especially the kitchen are magnificent Keith.
