Mr Madz just made me a hatstand!

[Orang Utan]

Hatstand? Some bark? Perhaps he's trying to tell you something. He'll make a rocking chair next, or maybe some loopy earrings

 

[madzone]

Oh, now I get it!

That would only be valid if there was a snowball in hells chance that he'd ever get off his arse and make some more

Perpetual cynicism will give you adrenal burnout

I'm saner than the lot of you put together

They're not in the least bit fragile. We've got a big one in the kitchen - had it for years with various kids, cats, dogs clambering on it. They're also deceptively comfy - specially with a sheepskin on them

Aww. Lovely. They suitable for outdoors as well? *carries on plotting future castle*

I think it's nice and Soj is a big old meanie.

Not really suitable for outdoors, no. You can oil them with teak oil and leave them out in the summer but it's best not to

Thank you

She is a big old meanie - but we all knew that anyway

I like the furniture Madz, it's

What wood is it? Hazel?

ignore soj, they obviously don't DO rustic in st helens

 

[geminisnake]

It's a braaaaaanch!!! give over!

No, it's smoother than a branch. You can see work has been done if you know what to look for.

Stunning furniture madz, and a lovely hatstand. What's mr madz using? Looks a bit like cherry to me in the hatstand. Couldn't make out the base though.

 

[madzone]

It's hazel for the furniture and the hatstand and leylandii that he cut down on a job for the base of the hatstand.

ph - I don't think they have tres in St Helens do they? All been burned down or sold for crack

Hazel's good, lots of uses and entirely sustainable. Coppicing is

Knew it was one of the ones in my garden, but it's dark and I couldn't be arsed going out and checking
I've got contorted hazel if he wants bits to get fancy with

 

[Disaster]

I thought he was doing fencing next door but he was beavering way in his workshop to make me this



He knows I need a hatstand type thing to display my bags at the weekend so he just got on with it to save me having to try to buy one. Bless his smelly socks

Aww. He loves you!

 

[Strumpet]

That's a lovely thing to do Madz! Tis verahhh nice (the stand and the chair things)

Lmao@the madz/moomoo/sojourner panto. You 3 make me fukn laugh.

His woodwork and your soft furnishings would be fab, missus.

Mind you, turnround time of four years would put even the very rich off

 

[longdog]

It's not meant to be - it's meant to be rustic!

Cock off city boy

When I was on the buildings 'rustic' was what we called things when we'd fucked them up.

"What do you mean the plaster's not even? It's not meant to be, it has rustic charm"

 

[soulman]

Wonders what Mr Madz can make you tomorrow..

 

[mrs quoad]

I think I've worked out what's going on.

This reminds me of Rorymac's recent story about scaffolding.

Well I think it was about scaffolding.

And some chap who wanted to do something related to Rory's scaffolding.



I think someone was called Bully.

Well, when you're down you can inspect it and see that it is, in fact. extremely well made

Has Kanda asked you to take over from him so he can have a day off?

I'm sure it's been longer than that!

 

[equationgirl]

I'd quite like a bag stand. That would be a useful thing to have
