Kids’ Ladder
Here’s the ladder constructed… just needs a coat or two of varnish.

Beginning the Kids’ Ladder
I’m going to attempt to build a ladder for the kids to get into their loft-den. I’m using spare, recycled timber. The steps will be decking boards cut down the middle.
Log Store Loft
The loft in the log store is the perfect size for a kids’ den. Here I am flooring it with some recycled HDF.
Wax for the Mantel Beam
I opted for Briwax to colour & protect the mantel beam. The beam is on order and should arrive in a few days. I’ll slightly shape (or “distress”) the beam then sand and finish with wax.
Wood Shed with Corners Fitted
Got the corner pieces fitted and more wood inside. Happy that it’s now fairly weather tight (unless we get storms coming from the north).
Stack ‘Em High
Nice and tidy or pile them high…
Corner Pieces Treated
I’ll use these pieces on the four corners of the shed, partly for cosmetic reasons but also to protect all the end-grain of the slats.
I chose Ronseal Total Wood Protector after reading some good reviews. Dark brown to contrast the unstained slats.
