Planking up the house

[Mr. Ed]

Under way with the next big task in the extension. 25mm Leylandii boards from trees felled about 5 metres away with some

Douglas making up the numbers . More screws than you can imagine - lots of strength and redundancy.  I’m proud of my bodgey cheapskate site saw - an ownbrand tracksaw to mitre the ends and cut the gables. 
Abs yes, we’re looking forward to living in a packing case.

[Mr. Ed]

I had a friend lend me a hand for a bit and bought the battens but I milled the timber and am doing the rest myself yes. Othe visitors are also going to be invited to put in a few screws and hold tape measures!
