I'm a Carpenter!

posted by [personal profile] quinn222 at 01:59pm on 24/02/2007
I took yesterday off and spent most of the day in my garage:



I'm really proud of myself. I've never built anything other than screw together furniture (and teeny tiny buildings) in my life! I even have blisters and callouses on my hands. I'm anxious to get these benches done though so the fun stuff can begin.

This is the benchwork for a model railroad.

Are you working from a set of plans, or did you design the benches yourself?

I adapted two sets of plan, one for the supporting legs and one for the modules that go on the legs.

These are the support structure for a model railroad.

What a good girl. Will you update once the railroad is complete? and when you say 'teeny tiny buildings' I assume you mean for other such models.
