    Books on external door construction

    The last door I made was a replica to replace the door on a listed cottage. It was an interior door that had been cut down to the point it was falling apart-literally.

    Strange design of park bench- any ideas?

    Imperial vs Metric

    I seem to recall the late Stephen J Gould covered this in one of his many essays - I no longer have his books - and I'm pretty sure it was only in the west that the earth-centric view held because of religious dogma?

    Strange design of park bench- any ideas?

    Just speculating. There was something similar, though less elaborate, on the Repair Shop (I seem to recall?). Difficult to tell from the photo but it looks like you'd be sat in a fairly upright position with the slats on and the ends coud be for a pole to the ceiling? Most park benches I've sat...

    Richard Findley - Live Conkers Demo

    Why not edit them down to, say, a ten minute video and use them as a promotional tool - 'book me for the real thing and here's a taster of what you'll get...' That way you can maintain a youtube presence?

    How to make a stair rod bracket?
