Another bit of work done on the barrow. It’s got windows now. And I did it all by myself 
It’s probably not up to Bobs standard and it took me about 4 times longer. But it’ll do for me. Still quite a lot to do.

Got rained off from building. So did some more to the barrow. Did have a bit of Bob help today. Just holding things in place. I ran out of hands .
Definitely getting there now.
The shelf is level! Even though it doesn’t look it.

Been doing some more to the barrow. Working on the doors mostly.
But you’re not see any more photos until it’s finished .

Well finally I’ve finished the barrow. It’s not yet in its selling position. Still need to as the land owner.
What do you think?
It’s not up to Bobs level of craftsmanship but I’m quite pleased with the overall look. It’ll look better when it’s got a bit more stuff in it.

Brilliant, SC. I wouldn't know where to start making anything like that!

If I’m honest Bob did help with the frame that’s actually structural and attaching it all to the original barrow frame.
Mine wouldn’t of been quite up to task.

A beautiful barrow, who will be able to resist buying something from such a construction with character. I wouldn't have known where to start.
