hi guys thank you for the nice comments do appreciate it

Maybe the well would look better in the same stone as the other walls.

It all looks very good.

I like what you've done so far Monica. I agree with Ian though. A farmer using local materials for his barns would very probably use the same materials for all his building tasks.

I too like your work so far Monica, very nicely done.

 

[monica]

thanks for the nice comments guys

I will change the well any way just did not like it, maybe it will be happy in the bin :rolleyes:

I will do what Richi said and do a round one, but as you have said Ian/Gern is so right to make it from stone blocks and not bricks thanks guys good idea

 

[monica]

hi all only a Mimi update as my tom cat sunk his teeth into my hand and its been numb for 3 days

but hears what i have done,

added the guttering, made the down pipe from so old 1.35 spool or what ever its called

added the flashing to the shed and Lycon to the roof, and hay in 2 off the stables, and a small fencer to each side with a gate ,

made 3 buckets, 2 out off 1 mm balsa soaked for long hours and then bent around the end off a hobby knife and taped / let set over night come out ok to me,

added hands made from lite wire, and 1 made from tea candle,holder

add a little grass to base , use the fine powed grass but think i may need to get 1.35

think thats about all

hope you think the scales ok for the buckets as i just winged it

comments always welcome
