Spent some time in the cave, nice and warm so managed to get a lot done.
There will be more brick rubble later around the side and some broken glass. The green will be reduced on the stone sets as its just left at the moment while some glue dries.

Many thanks Chris, yesthe sepia just improves the build.

Superb! Most excellent work indeed.

The sepia image captures the period very nicely John.
I agree Doug, more like a newspaper photo of the time.

Thanks Andy, took some fiddling with to get to that look, think it's well worth the effort.

Thanks Andrea.Hopefully the next photos will please you.:nerd:

Looking lovely John. Nice to know there’s a good use for grout as well.
Yes there is indeed Tim, thought it was rather light, bit too light so havre darkened it.

Going to varnish the water, still white glue at the moment, then stain and varnish the edge to the base.

Thanks for the kind comments.

John.
