Me, my brother and his better half deconstructed this shed, it had to be done carefully as it is being assembled again in another location. We removed all of the felt and there were built in shelves which had had massive nails used, a lot of the screws heads had been threaded throughout the shed so that made it more fun lol. We removed inside shelving, took the shed apart including flooring and base. Thank you for reading ❤💚💛.

I haven't done this before. I had to plain, mortise, chisel hinge grooves, hang and paint two brand new doors. Initially I thought I'd be possibly trimming 1 or 2mm off the bottom but when I got there, there was sooo much more than that. The door frame was very off. It was over 1cm wider at the bottom compared to the top and the too frame was 1 1/2cm off being straight. I had to plain the doors to fit the off frame. I didnt have a work bench so I planned it with the door between my legs and leaning against the bed. It was not easy. I then cheseled out for the hinges, attached and hung the doors. Then I had to measure, drill and chisel the space for the barrel to go and then fit the handles and paint. I wasn't sure I could do this and my heart was in my throat throughout but I am very proud of myself for putting myself out of my comfort zone a d it laying off. I had to do a lot of deep breaths etc etc but done it! Feel amazing 💪. Thank you for reading. ❤💛💚

I made this for my niece and nephew, it did not go smoothly lol. I prepped all the parts put them together and then realised I can't have 4 same length pieces with two inside and two over the top of that makes sense. To my understanding they have to be this angle in the end pics but I live and learn. So I had to take it apart and put more drill holes in for the dowels and re position. Also I could've not drilled all the way through the wood for a better finish in the joints. The dowels are recycled from old furniture and the wood is old bed slats, the base is from the bottom of old draws. This is the first time I've made dowel holes and made a frame like this so happy with the outcome. The main thing is if they like it lol.Thanks for reading

Bedroom redecorated for my lovely customer. Ran out of wallpaper by the window so that's why the inside window part is painted not papered. My camera skills need work I know and I couldn't get the window part without it all going dark in the video. I also very much appreciated the box of celebrations as a thank you! Thanks for reading 💛❤💚

My washing machine stopped draining and I have no experience with fixing washing machines at all. I googled potential causes and did the following :

*Emptied the filter and cleaned it out. Problem continued.

* Stopped the water supply and disconnected pipes, pulled machine out layed it on its side carefully.
*Checked waste pipe wasn't blocked, disconnected the clips, pipes and pump motor. Found hair band and 2p pieces, some broken hair clips. Put all back together and problem continued. 😔
* Purchased a new pump, disconnected everything again,pull machine out etc and changed the motor pumps over, problem continued 😔
* Disconnected everything AGAIN, took all pipes and clips off as before and took off the sump hose connected to the drum itself and FOUND A SOCK!!!! It was twisted and ripped around the metal and blocking the hose.I removed it, put everything back together and now it works!!! I've done 4 washes now and it all works perfectly fine now!
Very proud of myself for this result. I learnt new stuff and saved so much money 💪
