That weave makes for a good looking wall.

Thanks all. Eric, I am only planning to do the one at this point but I probably will bash up an elevated grannery as well.

This looks great...from personal experience you always need more than one ! Can I suggest you start on the other 3-4 you will need now for your village and 'cut the corners'.

Eric, you are a very bad influence

Here are the latest upgrades. I coated the roof with PVA and then put three coats of paint on.

Then, I painted the base of the hut.

Here is what the hut looks like now.

All that is left is finishing the door, working on an interior fire pit, and gluing the static grass on the base.

Looking good so far.

Had a nice long weekend so I started an elevated grannery to go along with the hut. It really isn't quite as crooked as the photo makes it look, I swear

I'm hoping top work some more on the hut but expect to be dragged off for a day at the beach.

Oh, how terrible , I hope my sincere sympathy comes across as I watch the cold rain drizzle from a murky London sky

Looks good Lon, did you have to go and rob another restaurant or did you have some matting left over?

Chris,
When I set out to do something I try and do it properly. I snagged two of the mats. My wife was well and truly mortified to find it in her purse for the *second* time when we made it home from brunch

. So far I have only used up about 1/2 of one of them.

Excellent forward planning Lon, you should be able to get a reasonable village going before you have to go a'plundering again

Ged, Malamute and me are going out for a Thai in a couple of weeks, I'll be sure and wear my shoplifting coat

Do you need any cutlery as well?
