Weekend Projects

Great to see @blujeenz !

but to be fair, you likely have the welding equipment and know how to put it together ?
im sure that costs more than R750

lovely bike!
 
A few weekends project. Work from home has become a more regular part of my wife's routine,so a study/office upgrade was requested.
The brief was 'comfortable and mooi.'

Bliksem! When my son (eventually) moves out, you can come upgrade my mancave-to-be too! Love It!
 
Great work.

Just have one question. How come you went to all that trouble to make the sliding library ladder but don't use the top shelf? :)
 
Another work stand, this time for the front wheel.
I was getting squealing from the front wheel so I wanted to check out the wheel bearings and overhaul the brake caliper.

$380 from the US, ie R6080 ront. :)

Looks nice. I have something simular planned for next weekend if I'm not. Working
 
Good luck. Mine is a bit of an experiment. Its just held together with glue and 3 Brad nails on each joint.. I want to see how long the glue holds with the weight of all the albums
It should with the help of the nails last a lifetime if it stays on one place.
Once you start moving it and your not careful that's when it starts losening
 
My son wants to plant some veggies, but the mokeys cannot leave anything eddible alone when the troop missions through the neighborhood. So I decided to build him planters with a frame that can open and latch propperly.

Came put better than what it looked like in my mind and with the help of Mrs Chuck Norris Lungs we managed to run a planter box factory yesterday with plastic lining installed.

All it needs now is some wood sealer and then the netting can go on. Then he can gravel/soil it up, plant the seeds and watch the monkeys drewl over his veggies...
