So..... I found an AWESOME website http://www.knock-offwood.com/ . When i found it I tried to call everyone I knew who would care... no one answered... but that was ok! I got busy choosing the first thing I would build!
After buying a station wagon it was the perfect opportunity to fold down the seats and put wood in the back! Unfortunately the bunnings man cut the wood incorrectly! But its all good... just meant my shelves were a little bit longer and a little bit shorter...
Here is Suki checking out the supplies... she is intrigued...
So there was some man help... Al's Dad instructed us on the first set of shelves... the amount of wood made two! So I made the second set on my own!
Suki was impressed. She had a go of sitting on both levels. You can see here we added a cross bar thingy to stop the wibble wobbles... The next set I had a go at not using the cross brace... it seems ok... Father in law may be doesn't agree...
so so sweet!!! well done! suki was chief inspector of the whole operation huh? hehe
ReplyDeletewow that's fantastic alanna! was it hard? was it just glue and a screwdriver? I don't have the patience for bits of dowel that have to line up. i love the shelves, it's exactly what i need for my kidlet but one level high so he can have his parking garage on the top.
ReplyDeleteoooh i'm impressed missy!
ReplyDeleteno dowel! NO screws! although you could use screws i guess! just nails and glue! we predrilled the nails into the mdf bits because they can split the mdf in the long length she was suggesting. you should check out the plans on the website! they have so much kids stuff!
