  2. Cheers Jonesie i'll get one up together:001_smile:
  3. Wow cool
  4. Cheers for the advice and words of encouragement guys, I'll get this show over and done with and get on the case.
  5. I was thinking about garden centers just need to get stock up as i've not made many, I have roughly sorted out a price list of what i would like but struggling TBH as some people say it's cheap and some expensive. So my question is what do you think there worth?? Andy i'll PM a price list in the next few days as i have a show the weekend:001_smile:
  6. Can't you take visor off and were saftey glasses instead, Just a thought:001_smile:
  7. And more
  8. More trellis made today,
  9. Wow totally amazing:thumbup: Nice nips:laugh1:
  10. Another one
  11. If the hazel only lasts a few years all it has taken you is time to make a trellis, so give it ago. Hazels not that bad imo.
  12. Maybe but they will last at least 8 years:001_smile:
  13. If the rods are for a wall you can drill holes in the rods and feed small diameter rope through tieing a knot so the rod sits on it, it's simular to a blind but with bigger spacing. If you see what i mean:001_smile:
  14. The dowels are not chestnut but pine so a little softer, It's just friction holding them together i use one of the quick release clamps to gently squeeze the peg in and then a mallet to make it flush, might take a bit longer but works well. The other reason there not glued is because were thinking of doing them flat packed to so fit into the car easier and hopefully sell more:001_smile:
  15. I can do that:001_smile: As long as you don't mind having splinters ever time you put your pants on
  16. Thanks for the replies, I was thinking of trying to do the concetena trellis as well may take a while tho:001_smile:.
  17. I am going to join a mate at a show the weekend so i'll soon find out.
  18. I was thinking about turning the back into a green house:001_tongue: so the trellis will come in handy. Landys are great they have a multitude of uses:thumbup:
  19. Here's my attempt at some trellis made out of sweet chestnut, Any comments welcome positive or negative.
