GARDEN SWING

2013-06-19T08:10:00Z

THIS SWING WAS MADE FOR A CUSTOMER HIS ROUGH SKETCH ON PAPER,I RE DESIGNED USING AUTO CAD .THIS WAS MADE FROM SCANDINAVIAN PINE I HAD TO PICK FROM STACK BEST I COULD USE . .USING 125 MM X 35 MM LENGHTS . AND 125 X 32 MM DECKING BOARDS ..THIS WAS ALL MACHINED TO SIZE USING MY KITY 5 UNIVERSAL MACHINE CENTRE . AFTER IT WAS MACHINED TIMBER WAS SOAKED IN THOMPSON,S WATER SEAL FOR 3 DAYS ..THEN THIS WAS ASSEMBLED . FIXTURES USED WERE ALL STAINLESS STEEL .ONCE THIS WAS ASSEMBLED,IT WAS GIVEN 4 COATS OF BOILED LINSEED OIL . LAST COAT WAS FLOATING SLIGHTLY TO THE SURFACE . WHICH MEANS OIL WAS FULLY PENETRATED. THE SWING WAS THEN LEFT FOR A WEEK BEFORE IT WAS GIVEN A HEAVY DUTY BUFFING .THIS WAS A BUFFING PAD ATTACHED TO A ANGLE GRINDER . THIS LEFT TIMBER WITH A HIGH GLOSS FINISH . LOOKS LIKE IT WAS VARNISHED ,BUT NOT .THIS I GAVE CUSTOMER 15 YEARS GUARANTEE. WITH ADVICE HOW TO MAINTAIN IT EACH YEAR . THIS BECAUSE IT WAS A ONE OFF MATERIALS AND LABOUR I QUOTED HIM £365 IN YOUR MONEY $570.93 WHICH WITH THIS DIVIDED OVER 15 YEARS GUARANTEE = 180 MONTHS WORKS OUT AT $3.16 PER MONTH. AS I EXPLAINED TO CUSTOMER YOU GO TO ANY LOCAL GARDEN CENTRE AROUND THE WORLD TO BUY ANY OUTSIDE GARDEN FURNITURE ? I GUARANTEE YOU?? THEY WILL NOT GUARANTEE IT FOR 15 YEARS . AS I HAVE NOTICED ALL FURNITURE YOU BUY FROM GARDEN CENTRES ARE MANUFACTURED BY THE HUNDREDS . THEN DISTRIBUTED TO VARIOUS CENTRES .MOST ARE ASSEMBLED WITH NAIL GUN AND STAPLES ? THEN A QUICK SPRAY WITH STAIN . LOOKS GOOD WHEN YOU SEE IT FROM DISTANCE BUT MORE CLOSELY I DOUBT IT WILL LAST 2 SUMMERS . AS I SAY TO ANYONE WHO WANTS TO BUY FROM ME ALL MY WORK I DO I GIVE 110% .I MAYBE EXPENSIVE . BUT 15 YEARS LATER YOU WILL REMEMBER MY NAME DUSTY MILLER AND MY FURNITURE .

THE DECKING

2013-02-24T09:42:00Z

This is the start of a 6 metre x 5.040 metre decking.Before there was old decking which was solid 6 x 2 timber,with household internal flooring 6 x 3/4 inch.None of old was treated or tanalised. And the fixings on old boards were between 12 to 14 screws every 16 inches .Now area is cleared we are using 6 x 2 tanalised and treated timbers for the main frame. And 4 x 2 tanalised and treated timbers for the bearers which will be on joist hangers with noggins inbetween. The handrail will be fixed onto turned newel post..Time wise was getting the main decking frame right which is near on perfect with frame being out by 5 mm . With the weather here while doing decking had a little snow here and there.Plus a little blood here and there. At a later date you will see decking taking shape .
