MooN Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 This weekend I will be mostly: making shutters: I had 3 quotes to have our downstairs shutters replaced, 2 pairs 1m50 x 1m ish and one triple shutter 2m20 x 1m50 ish all 3 quotes were over 3000€ ! That's just taking the piss so seeing as I have 3 weeks of furlough to deal with and the weather should be good enough to work outside I thought I'd have a go myself. Though I've never made any shutters, I did originally train as a marine carpenter / boat builder. I had to clean nearly 20 years of cobwebs off this before I could start Having no power tools other than a cordless drill, I bought pre sawn planks for about 100€, ( doing one to stqrt with and see how it turns out) a box of screws, and a couple of thicker planks for the cross members, took the measures from the existing shuters and set to. dismantled them this morning for a 1st coat of varnish tomorrow. just then need to reassemble, 2 more coats varnish and fit to the existing hinges. total cost around 130€ per window. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slowlycatchymonkey Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 As sundays a day off I usually like to spend it cooking or biking. This Sunday Ive chosen cooking which looking at the sunny forecast seems a mistake! Heyho full English on the go at the mo and I’m gonna have me some bacon for the first time in while the menu may have to be altered... ? ? ? Now what else to do with duck thats been slow cooking overnight?! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
