Putting back that teak !
Putting back that teak !You may recall I brought home a few sawn up benches from Cricket last September, there was uproar when I said I was using it as firewood!!
I will admit to burning a fair bit of, just those a bit too far gone. The rest I have used for walk-ons in the muddy parts of the garden, made a short length of fencework and saved the rest for other 'projects'. But, today I decided to gather a load of bits together and remake a bench and a small table which I've placed outside my 'Office', took ages as all were wrong sizes and had been sawn in all the worse places to do much with [center][/center] Tell you what though, they're not going anywhere, firm as rocks.

Re: Putting back that teak !Looks like a great place to take a break .. would have cost a fortune to buy garden furniture of that quality .. so glad you decided not to burn it all
Re: Putting back that teak !Crikey is that what you get up to when you have got no plans for the day . I can see you having picnics there before long ( strong coffee and a chocolate biscuit in the meantime)
It will be alright in the end , if its not alright, it isn't the end .

Re: Putting back that teak !There's one at the Club in memory of my Great Uncle who was a lifelong Member - it's now found it's way to the Players balcony.
As you say, it's real quality. When the Groundstaff said I could have them and take home in the large Club Van I thought they meant complete, but they got a circular saw and just went for it, so nothing the same size, or straight. A lot of the wood, due to how it came apart is split, but I can still find ample use for it. New Member? Get more from the Forum and join in 'Members Chat' - you're very welcome
Re: Putting back that teak !Nice work

Re: Putting back that teak !I also agree its better as a bench then firewood, nice job Richard. All that remains is to test it out, with a pot of tea in hand of course.
Dont ever grow up, its a trap
