March update - Weeks 101-102

This week we started to make the huge kitchen table. First we planed the long pieces of semi-seasoned oak to ensure tight joints. We then biscuited jointed the four lengths and sash clamped them together overnight (see photo). Thanks to Jock lending us the clamps for the weekend we managed to make six bedside/coffee table tops. The next day we worked on the legs ready for constructung the final furniture.

During the week snagging continued as well as belt sanding and oiling of the tables. The downstairs WC and sink are now plumbed in (at the third attempt!).
