The wood, the tools, the equipment, the big bank holiday #diy project is kicking off. The front room has three of these Billy bookcases which don’t fit in alongside some overbearing design choices from the previous owners (the cornices). I have a detailed order of works for the build on a spreadsheet. The first few hours are going to be decanting and clearing out this corner.
#DIY Tah dah? The plan is that the shelves will be primed, sanded, painted and fixed to the battens and caulked - but that’s not happening today. I had to trim each shelf and I made a last minute design change cutting the corner of the rear of the shelves to fit them in easier and so I can run lighting up them (as they are quite deep). The structural stuff is done, can tidy the tools away now.
With hindsight of course vested interests made sure that Clive Sinclair’s electric personal vehicle never got traction. He also around the same time virtually invented the e-bike, call the Zike, which was limited by how heavy batteries were at the time. (See also: the Segway)
