    Just made this piece of fencing, cost about $12.

    It will go outside the front door, has to be stained of course.

    Then it will go with the one I made a few years ago.

    That is great! I love the asymetrical top in contrast with the conventional bottom. You have an artist's eye (and the ability to figure angles!).

    That is really a work of art. When I look at it it reminds me of the rising sun - ingenious.

    A good eye catcher. It is unusual for someone to 'think outside the box' and turn an everyday item into a piece of artwork. Great job Kildale!!

    Thank you all for the kind remarks. Off to get some stain for it and then I can secure it properly. This is the small shed I made a while ago in the back garden

    I made the roof, one side solid and the other with clear plastic sheets for plenty of light.
