Watched an excellent Kris Harbour compilation video of his projects. Perfect way to start the day with a cuppa and some inspiration too. That lad is some grafter and meticulous in execution.
Back in old biff land we finished framing out the long wall and covered it with weed membrane (breathability and colour). Ran a few boards through the solar tablesaw and SWMBO had a chat about what will look best.
Our collage board!
We have settled on 200mm boards with 30mm cover strips for the outer walls and 100mm boards with a 5mm shadow gap for the inner walls.
All will be ripped and prepped using solar powered tools from 200 x 25 mm ungraded, untreated Storm Arwen timber.
It will be a lot of work but I feel I owe it to the build to be as low carbon as I can be. The weed membrane is a leftover from a job years ago and the tablesaw I bought for £50 off a mate 15 years ago secondhand after he'd built an extension using it.
I've now got somewhere to hang my shirt in the build, even if it is a G clamp!
Roll on tomorrow, get into these boards.
