So upon deciding to start a youtube channel I needed someplace to film. I think if you start off with a good studio you are halfway there. The other half is the content and we will deal with that later.

New Garden Fence
So since we moved in, we have never had a fence down one side of our garden. This was one of those jobs to get around to and now that some of the inside of the house is done, we can start to tackle the garden.

So this is a quick little project. We have one of those Bathroom cabinets that sits under the sink, with sections cut out so that it fits the pedestal.
What we want is to move it to a different part of the bathroom, so we are going to need to replace the top and the shelves.

So the next project is to build a brick Barbecue. I actually wanted to start on this project about a year ago. I ended up buying 400 bricks off a guy on eBay for £40. It turns out he had had the same idea only his misses had got pissed off with the bricks sitting in their garden. Well, his loss is my gain.

After having a lot of success with the £5 lightbox, I started a new little project. I have been working on a few scale models at the moment that are a little too large to photograph in the lightbox I have.

She Shed Part One Building A Pent Shed For The Girlfriend
If I didn’t have enough to do with the living room I thought why not build a shed. To be fair it is just one of those kits that you stick together. Managed to find this nice little pent shed. As it is for the girlfriend got some pink paint to finish it off.

Refurbishing The Loft Room
The Neverending loft refurb. after nearly 8 months and several near nervous breakdowns, the loft is just about complete.
A couple of things still need doing; skirting fitted once the carpet has settled, staircase painted, a new door attached to the storage cupboard and a couple of pieces of trim and filling.
But as Sam is about to start moving things into the room this will be the last chance to get some photos while the room is still empty.
