The old barrel is finished




I intended to do this earlier but I had a few problems posting .Anyway this is how I finished the old barrel...I got some steel  straps, about inch & half wide and made the hoops..Then I fastened the hoops together with battered rivets,, as you can see in photo below. The old barrel turned out to be a nice antique to display in my garden.

Mini Greenhouse From Plastic Fish Box

I had plants to harden off so I kind of threw this together real quick.Here I used a plastic fish box,any type of box,rectangular or square could be used.To build it - put together 2 frames,stagger the joints  on top and bottom frames.Attach hinges to the frames and paint, you'll need a trim strip to nail on top of  the plastic, paint that too.Use a better colour scheme than  I did.Anyway to finish,apply the plastic with staples first, pulling it tight for good appearance, than nail on your trim pieces and  attach the unit to the box of choice,your done.
