Popular Post Kimjon Posted June 22, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 22, 2019 Brother is going out into business on his own. He brought a ridiculously huge van, big enough to human traffic at least 40 Russian brides in. He wants to transport his kitchen bench tops in it, so I've spent today making him this: And test fitting in the mega van: It's going to get painted, more 18mm plywood on the floor (under the carpet) and wood slats tech screwed to it for the tie downs to hold onto...but you get the idea. I'll leave that stuff for him to finish as it's just paint and screws and he's more than capable of doing that. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimjon Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 And today's efforts for the same cause (keep brother happy). A huge materials rack. Start with this...end up with that: I made a wooden jig to help keep everything the same. String lines to get alignment squared away. And in place in a 40ft shipping container. He'll paint it next week, along with the van rack. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhyscar Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 (edited) Solved one of the first world problems we have with our outdoor furniture lately. After browsing mitre 10/Bunnings and not finding any decent quality options that aren’t $500+ made me decide to build one instead. https://photos.app.goo.gl/hY6EvVE2qRRJ448H7 Built a frame then stained some ply and slapped it on the outside. https://photos.app.goo.gl/dYM4WfYmcDWqi9d79 Came up pretty sweet. Now my cushions stay dry when I want to use them https://photos.app.goo.gl/g2e2k7eh5bdaUNUx6 Edit: how do you embed/upload multiple pics? I’ve been struggling along only adding 2 pics to each of my posts to fit under the size limit but surely there’s a better way!?? thanks in advance! Edited June 24, 2019 by Rhyscar I’m a noob 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I create a text message to myself, then hold down and save those images. From there they're already resized...and you can upload multiple photos from the folder they end up in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoKer Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 to save the OS bandwidth I use Imgur as much as possible Nice box too! here's a couple more 'boxes' (which I did not construct but did have a hand in) starting to gain traction slowly 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhyscar Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Those are cool how do you buy one/how much are they? These projects always take way longer than expected. If it wasn’t a good winter project to chip away at I should have just paid the money and bought one in hindsight... thabks kimjon I’ll give it a go! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoKer Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 1 hour ago, Rhyscar said: how do you buy one at this stage contact the Trellis Outdoor Centre in Tauranga, they are the first Heat pump boxes I've seen with my Panels (or any local handy man / Trellis manufacturer should be able to "knock one up") "someone" might make a killing in a Large City buying & up-selling my Panels eh (I'm still under 5x Auckland area Stores) only the Ply Fern portion is my creation / responsibilty, I've been trying to sell (or make contact) to shops all over NZ and it still a slow process, even with a nation wide rep for the past 12months Mitre 10 Mega Hamilton sent back their order (didn't want to create an account for a "Small order") vs Dunedin that ordered 2x Pallets of Panels in Feb (sorry didnt come here to derail or interupt the thread with my issues hah) Another! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RB30VB Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Hole is probably too high for it to be used as a bong.. but what I really wanted to comment is, as someone who has experience cutting glass etc, that is IMPRESSIVE that he managed that with a hand drill ! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
