BigLen Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Im a little bit late documenting this one; Bought a shelf for our son's room on amazon, Link: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07HVXHPWS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_btf_t1_e2zNFbZCJYX1H?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 It's designed to hold 80 hot wheels cars, will look good on the wall above the foot of his bed; and save him tipping out a box full of toys to find a perticular car, I'm currently painting it in a dark grey colour to match the colour of his mid sleeper bunk bed as best possible, Stock was limited at the local DIY store and were currently restricted to 5km distance from home which I hate as I can't take our dog to the forest for a walk. Anyway; first coat applied to the main structure, I'll dismantle the sections tomorrow as I don't want the fumes of paint to upset the dog which sleeps in the kitchen every night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigLen Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 Further progress today; I didn't enjoy painting all of the strips while trying to hold it not smudge and prevent any paint runs, Left them to dry since 9am this morning, Pieced it back together there at 15:00 and measured the wall; I fitted four 90 degree brackets with two holes, Brackets are screwed to the wall then a small screw goes through the bracket in to the frame of the unit securing top and bottom inside the brackets, All the effort painting was well worth it though guys; check this out looks very cosy and functional since he's still only five; well six before Christmas. The paint colour is a close match to the bed frame too. Since this one has turned out to be a success; I hope to purchase another one soon and fit it four cars higher than this one and around 15cm to the left of this one, They look great and saves lifting them up off the floor as he won't be spilling them out now to find a perticular model. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks mate, I don't have a dry enclosed place outside of the house to do spraying but it would have been quicker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually got bored and was blasting my music 😂. Found it easier than driving in London. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Y Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Got a call from Curry's yesterday confirming my PS5 pre-order and also to say that due to the lockdown starting tomorrow, they will only be allowed to do click and collect. I've got to go to the store before 8pm today to pay for them so that on release day I can just drive up and collect the items. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dtulip8 Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 I love how good the ST-Line looks when clean!

Just made a trip up the Dales and back to shut up our caravan pre-lockdown (our planned break at the coast being cancelled 😠) and the local safety camera squad were out in force to catch anyone hurrying home! 1 hour ago, dtulip8 said: I love how good the ST-Line looks when clean!

Yes, despite the camera vans and my speed limiter (the Mrs😃) I quite enjoyed our drive back down the Dales today in lovely sunshine. Unlike the drive up yesterday when we had to turn round and divert twice due to flooding! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
