Bonnet bend went better than expected around an old table first time right so really pleased with that.
Next the Wings come in four sections, and its the last one than is arse clenching.

Re: Covid constructing
Nothing as skilled or exciting for me...but a 5-bay polytunnel is taking shape in the back of the veg garden.

Re: Covid constructing
Ha ha a poly tunnel, try doing it today as blowing a hooley in Bristol!
Did you get it in shape?
The outside tape line is the cut line and the inner will be folded at 90 degrees down to bolt on to the outer wing.
I spent hours deliberating whether it was right or whatever as too short will write the wings off

Re: Covid constructing
The cut went well stoopidly enough i had to sink a few beers Yesterday eve to do it.
Annoying part was the wing riv nuts were exactly lined up with dash bracket so had to raise both wings by a few mm, typical
All good so far

Still doing the frame...it's a big un with 5 hoops on a sloping site, but looking straight so far.Helicoptermanr22 wrote: ↑Mon Apr 13, 2020 9:21 am Ha ha a poly tunnel, try doing it today as blowing a hooley in Bristol!

You are right...a bit breezy to put the cover on today, but we've got the doors to build, which can be done under cover.
