Date: 24th September 2011

Saturday session
• Very quiet day, no more than 6 shed member present.
• Personal project to see what sort of advice I’d get. Chance to prove skills
• Good discussion with J about clearing out the wood stack above machines

Very quite day, no more than 6 shed member present. I unsure why there were so few members in attendance today. J and N said it just sometimes happens that way. J and N as well as F also noted it was good for a change to have room in the workshop which is often very crowded.
N and F spent their time working on preparing wood for planter boxes. J was working with another member to weld and install brackets in the container. As this was a two person job I asked F if there was anything else he needed doing. We talked about moving wood from the loft to the woodshed however when he heard I had a project of my own I could work on he encouraged me to do this. I’m currently renovating the kitchen in my home and had a mantle piece I was constructing in the back of the car. It was nice to get a chance to work on this as it was my first individual project at the shed.
For the rest of the session I worked by myself on this with occasional queries from F, J and N. F and N were very complimentary about the progress of the construct where as J wanted to hear what my plans were about joints and fixings. It was satisfied and complimentary once he heard I had a justifiable plan.
Left at 12.30 with the other members. (photos to follow of piece and wood in loft)
