FWLR Fence
Posted: Sat May 25, 2019 9:25 am
I know it's been some time since I promised that all would be revealed on the garage build. I am sorry for that. It's been a few long weeks, this health thing is [missed this word out (getting)] to me. I don't really want to keep on about it all the time, I just hope you understand.
On to the build. I think most of us when we have been driving along or even travelling on a train and we see garages, what else do we see apart from the garage....There is often some kind of a fence or wall with what else, cars for sale.
So I have made this build. I got these off bazzer42, who by the way, I haven't seen post on the forum for quite sometime....
You can get them from Ikea or from eBay.
I then cut them from the moulding and also cut them in half, first with scissors, but that started to hurt my little fingers... Then with the guillotine that Anne got at Christmas for me.
Then it was just a case of glueing them to some 5mm plastic strips and then fit them to 8mm square tube, or was it 6....This memory is getting worse...
I made a sign board for the compound and glued them all the fences to the tubes to make a compound.
I had to measure in-between the posts because Anne offered to make something for the compound.
This is were I now forgot to take any more photos until the fence was finished, sorry. I got some Slaters 8mm plastic letters and glued them to the sign. I made the gate to open. I got the fixing from a Dolls house site. Then I made some lights for the board. It needs to have a separate switch, so I made a bin for the switch, again I can't show you the build of that because I did take some photos of it, they are not in any photo album I have, so again I have messed up, they have been deleted....
So here are the photos of the finished fence and garage. I will be posting the finished garage on my main thread.
Anne made the bunting, but she give her sawing machine to middle Daughter, so we tried to iron them, you can buy some material that it supposed to iron, it didn't work!!
So middle Daughter sewed them for me.
And with the lights
I am pleased with the end result and more importantly, so is Anne...
