I have decided upon a goal for this week - to get all the cupboard doors made and into position.
Today, I gathered all the wood I need. This involved diving into a barn to pull planks from a Jenga-style pile of rusty nailed floorboards whilst nettles nibbled at my ankles, followed by a more civilised trip to the hardware shop to get some bits of pine.
My plan does depend on whether the Man With the Power Mitre Saw is available, as there is no way I’m hand trimming and cutting all those floorboards. I’m going to ring him tonight and also do all my final measurements. If everything goes according to plan, I’ll be able to get a little production line going and hopefully finish by Sunday.
That’s the idea, anyway. Watch this space if you enjoy seeing well-laid plans go completely pear-shaped.
