Worried about bird strikes?
Paint a picture of some evil looking hawk on each panel.

I'm just a board short to complete the floor. There is still some outside detail work and more painting to do, but I think the end is in sight.

very nice.

You can get hawk shadow stickers to stop bird strikes.

Pete, that my friend is fantastic. I can only imagine how much you'd have to pay to get something like that. Brilliant.

absolutely superb mcm!

That's going to be a great place to hide in a thunderstorm. Just needs a suspended woodburner stove and flue, a massive sheepskin rug, and a bottle of Chateau de Mcmoonter '67

Greig, I doubt I'd ever pay someone to build something like this. The fun and challenge is in finding the materials and winging it until something works out. It's a bit like the way I paint.

Stoner, a stove was on my wish list. We are thinking about a new stove for the hall, so I may recycle our old one into the pavilion.

May I just say

It's a rusty Corniche, much more useful as a tool box.

Local council transport yard. If I could get my hands on more, I'd build something else.
