Like the door and grill a lot

When I was at the wood yard, I got a bit of rough cut wood for the sides and top £5 - and had some leftover floor board for the shelves - and match board for the back - so not cost a lot to make
Sanded edges to round things off - stained antique pine and waxed with rugger brown coloured wax - polished

Any idea what it is for?

Finished and in place - takes 6 Ryobi batteries and 6 Dewalt batteries

Just a little rack to hold amp and CD player - over the top of the printer and scanner
All the nails that can be seen are copper, and it was stained and varnished

Little tall table - this was built out of some scrap - uprights are leftover wall frame studding - stained and waxed

This was step grandsons pine bed slats - last time we moved stepdaughter the bed was knackered, but the wood was too good to throw away - so I used the pine bed slats to make a wooden shoe rack - stained and waxed - to keep my work boots in

It could probably be a nice shelter and nest for those tedious pigeons around your home.

Mrs BCN was looking at some stupid little outdoor table at £90 - £100 for the patio above the house

So last wet day I pulled a few lumps of wood into my work tunnel, and you end up with a custom-made to measure table

2.4 m decking board that has been lying about for at least 20 years (so it's 600 mm square)
3.6 m length of 2" x 2"
and some 1" x 2" roofing lath offcuts
Stainless steel screws
4 black plastic door stops as feet - total under £10

Not something I built, but related. Found some of my old pics on Imgur, and have a few to share.

This is an old Stanley block plane, I got from an antique tool dealer. It says "PATD 10-12-97" (1897). Spent a good amount of time truing, tuning. There were hammer marks on the throat plate, but was still able to achieve a fine level of tune. Installed a high carbon Hock (brand) iron. Perfect as can be--served me well for many years, and is now in the possession of one of my past apprentices.

Spose I could share a few things,

The cardboard box just didn't cut it for transporting round the airsoft M60.

Same for my TLP Hellfire model rocket.
Don't think TLP is in business anymore but they made a great variety of kits.

Prior to this the firing pistol set was just kept in a rag.
