Nearly finished

(click on pic to see a larger version)

It's not a work of art, but you're looking at my nearly completed shelving
inside one of our bedroom wardrobes. It's taken me about 2 months to do
all this, on and off. I spent 7 hours yesterday, screwing in the shelf
supports and then sawing up the three wooden shelves (and edging). I used
some wood glue, in places for additional bonding. I'm pleased to say that
all the wood used was recycled, except for the upright piece of plywood,
the middle shelf, the edging and the supports. I think the entire job
would have taken a joiner about a day and a half to do, but all the wood
would have been brand new, and the job would have cost us a few hundred
pounds. The safe was fitted by a professional, by the way ... you'd need
a JCB to remove it (that is if you were desperate to read my autobiography,
my will, and a few family history documents). :)

Which reminds me of a funny story about a neighbour's safe being burgled
... this elderly neighbour lived in a huge Edwardian detached house, next
to my parents' house in Leeds. In conversation with him one day, about
house-break-ins, he told me that some burglars had managed to steal his
safe, which weighed a ton. All that was inside it, was his golf cap.
