After the old forum software breaking in a way that we were unable to fix, we've migrated the site to a new platform.
Some elements aren't working as we'd hoped - some avatars didn't survive the transition, and we're still having issues with attachments that weren't added as inline images, but we're hoping to have that all sorted out soon.
The shack is looking good C-man!! Just one point..... Maybe spend some loose coins on a decent letterbox :rofl: :stir Oh, there are some nice custom letterbox digs by our resident chippy/mechanic/deck builder somewhere ::) Oh... Did I say spotters fee :rofl:
Speechless.... Hat off, bowing...... Dude!! I am in awe of your foresight to undertake a project like that. Personally I know I don't have the vision to see the end product and I always marvel at people who do. Well done, brilliant job, and, easily explains you persevering with your coffee equipment at the beginning Rider still in awe......
Thanks guys, we just sort of go with what comes our way and how we fell about it. those retro yellow vinyl commercial floor tiles are no longer available, we just stumbled onto them at a bargain and took the risk, we love the fact that they are not so serious and sombre as tiles and brighten up the lower level. You can see the machine I used to clean and buff them then sealed them, very low maintenance now. still working on upstairs, no kitchen yet, still living with an electric fry pan and crock pot, but have Coffee station...
And a very fine coffee station, it is too. Our C-man is quite modest. What the photos don't do justice to; is the very open Gallery/ living area that is more like walking into, well an Art Gallery, I suppose. That is also a suspended slab (concrete ceiling/floor above)- so you could have a party upstairs and enjoy the serenity downstairs... It would be a truly lovely place to call home...
a few quick snap preview of the upstairs, happy with my DIY rendered and epoxy floor still lots to do still no kitchen, you can see the pipes in the floor where the island will be
My wife Mila is the designer/decorator anyone with a fat checkbook can do that What impresses me is everything was scrounged on the cheap, many things collected over the past year some needing repairs ect. She has the vision to put all things together piece by piece scoring things as they come. All I can do is build what she wants.
Wow. Amazing transformation from when I was there last. You've really pushed this along! Great job! I'll be around for a coffee next week, get those burrs seasoned! :P
