The amount a bolt needs screwing in is less than the gap created by the wood I am fixing to the wall.

It's like this. Can't find studs (if there were any) as the wall is full of metal strips. Sorry, not sure what it's called.

Still in the wall. I daren't touch them until trying to understand what's happened.

Carving is chisels, gouges etc. Whittling uses a knife.

I like Mora knives. But my favourite is my Brusletto Balder for whittling.

I always recommend the flexcut sets for beginners. I haven't been on a holiday without them in the last 10 years. They are perfect for filling that spot between whittling and carving. Over time you can slowly build your collection of Sheffield steel up as you start to carve bigger things.

Just spotted this in the shed. All the MDF boards have got mould. Can I recover them? Is there any point? It's self evident that my shed has a moisture problem, if I replace the wood, what do you guys recommend pls?

Makes sense. That's for the tip!

Thanks

Yeah I will be painting the main piece before I build it.

I am building some alcove shelving. It's for the bedroom, so won't carry any real weight... just the GFs makeup etc. The shelving will be about 120cm long. I will be using a 12mm ply sheet, a 9mm ply sheet, and the rest is pine. I would like to construct them in the layout above. The idea...

What is it?
