You have probably heard me rambling on about my front steps project where I took out the old steps and completely re-modelled the entrance with steps leading off to the side instead of the front. All done with scrounged bricks (took me ages to clean them), Well that part was completed a few weeks back but was a bit of a deathtrap without railings. i always intended to make the railing in the same guise as my gate and fence and finally finished them. After a coat of paint they don't look three bad so I was chuffed that project is just about complete.
I also scrounged a big lump of wood from a tree that some one was keen to get rid of. This I planned on turning into an anvil stand and yesterday my youngest son gave me a hand to construct my 'Garden Folly' Maybe not to everyone's taste but its at the top of the garden, unseen from the French doors and patio and with plenty of room around it so I can shape metal to my hearts content!
Here's a few piccies.
