I've really enjoyed seeing this being built.  It's such a cracking design.  A bet it's going to be an absolute pleasure working in it.

What a great job you've done. Now I'm quite discontented with my little bubble-wrap one.
We see you still have a pile of lumber. What is the next project- a  spiral staircase up to a deck over-looking your lottie?  8)
The handle on your recliner does not qualify as an exercise machine.

Most of the timber you see is pallets, Long ones collected for my raised beds,
Next project? Ive got my eye on a couple of corner baths to catch the
water that bubbles up from the water table when it rains enough.
It tends to water log the plot, So i thought ide cache it and not have to walk so far for water in summer.
