greenhouse is a go

So been and collected the freebie

It had been left by the previous allotment holder, so not sure if complete

I know some glass missing, they were broken

Now going to spend the afternoon. hopefully changing these into a greenhouse

 

OK so the good lady and I, stared for about 10 mins at the various pieces of metal.

Before "we'll do it tomorrow after work" started we set to

So, apart from the door, we started sorting into sizes. When that didn't help then we sorted into style/type of bar etc. and that still didn't help much lol

We carried on, aimlessly and then we got the first bit

it started to look like a roof

and then......

a side piece??

and another ?

 

The wife, left me to me to myself, so process slowed down

but I did manage to get some more pieces together

Side and part of the roof



Ok, maybe a lean too instead



It's starting to look a lot like a greenhouse

 

And then finally ran out of nuts and bolts. so came to a halt

Was really only checking that it was all there, so new nuts and bolts, as well as window clips will be ordered and then it will be reduced to pile of metal again, cleaned and painted.

Does anybody know what this is for?? (Of course somebody does )


Will need to build a base, house is rented, so needs to be removable if we leave. Was thinking used sleepers, but if anybody has a better plan let me know.

So it is standing in the back garden, looking a bit sad and tired, but next day off (10 days time) if it's not raining then it will be cleaned and painted.

Thanks for looking
Chris

 

@Aquanaut you're doing a good job there, I assume it's an aluminium greenhouse so I'm just wondering if there's a particular reason you are going to paint it?

 

Just wanting to tidy it up a bit, it just look a little sad and

OK, the wife wants it in green, so must be done (somehow)

Cheers
Chris

 

Well done Chris, it's looking good

 

Taking shape nicely Aquanaut

 

Hi

Thanks for that @JWK , thought it was for something like that, one was in the framework already but didnt think for bubblewrap

Not doing anymore at the moment, back at work and waiting for new bolts etc to arrive
