Muncie Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 6mm benchtop similar cost to Granite? looks mint and user friendly as well as blastproof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepers Posted April 14, 2018 Author Share Posted April 14, 2018 the 6mm plate was cheaper than most of the "normal" bench top options. it was way cheaper than a typical thin SS sheet folded over chip board style. i cant remember exactly what it cost. at the end of a full house build you don't tend to consider anything less that 10k as worth remembering. if you ever go down this path you'll see what i mean. the bench top had a "brushed finish" which is actually done using a machine called a time saver (google it to see what it does but its basically a giant belt sander) and it gives a sanded type finish. its easy to get scratches and shit out just using scotch brite. would i use 6mm plate again for a bench top?. absolutely. its fucking rad. 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post sheepers Posted March 8, 2020 Author Popular Post Share Posted March 8, 2020 Right so 2 years later. Thanks to me fucking my back for an entire year and many hassles with the cunts at the council it's taken this long to build a fence and finish the front of the house. But now that's underway. Nothing fancy, just timber boarding type deal. There will be a retractable gate and a carport to come too. 12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUNAMUCK Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 The kerbing outside your place is a bit second hand looking. Might wanna have a whinge to the cuntcil about that. Tell them your wife elderly auntie stepped on the kerb where its sunk, and rolled her ankle. That modular kerb is shit though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sheepers Posted March 9, 2020 Author Popular Post Share Posted March 9, 2020 I don't give a fuck about the footpath. It can stay that way for all I care. Anywho today I did more.

johnnyizegem Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 If only my house had an MS75 in front of it... (well, it had at multiple occasions but not ever a roadworthy one :p or an MS51 for that matter ) Very nice work! Looks like a lovely place to be living in. Self made furniture just makes it even better... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
