Its all in the preparation....

So the website has been up and running for a little while now and I thought I'd better start using this blog page, seeing as its here!

Its my first time so don't judge too harshly.  As with any new venture, its all about the preparation, so I've spent most of my free time recently, sourcing and preparing materials to build from and trying to create some examples of the kind of things that we can and would like to create.

Today's been one of those days in particular....I've been gradually working my way through some huge fallen poplars that fell in recent storms, and its been tough going, especially trying to split logs to make some benches with my little chainsaw!  Finally got my hands on something a bit bigger today, and now have the basics prepared for what will be four beautiful looking and massively heavy log benches.  Just need about six months to dry and hell of a lot of sanding!!
