And yet there is more!

 The next project was one that I greatly had been looking forward to!

My father-in-law had given me a few slabs of camphor laurel that he had in his shed a few years prior to his passing.

I always said that when I had the time and a few more tools that I would make one of these. See I grew up learning how to sew on one of these old Singer Treadle machines. In fact my mother still uses the one she taught me on which was her mother's!

I just loved these stands and machines so when I saw one of the bases being sold (several years ago as well) I bought it with this in mind.

So I had the stand but what to do about the top?

Eureka! Of course, the old slabs dad gave me. So I dug out one of the slabs and cut it down to a reasonable size.

A lot of sanding to get the cup/bow out of it and then to give it a smooth finish. Then of course vanished a few times. I attached it with (Cringe moment here - small roofing screws) it was the only secure way at the time.

 I did replace them with lag bolt screws later so you can breathe a sigh of relief there.

I have a very small TV that sits on it with some pictures now in my office.

Next in the order

 Next in the list of things created prior to the TSS (Tiny She Shed) being built is :

 

Towel Rack

Excuse this 👆 first picture as I was

 leaning against a wall trying to get some distance from being blurry.

        

This was a great little project and very, very useful as I was limited in space between the shower and the bath tub but desperately needed something to put all the towels, washcloths etc.

Its made out of pine with 4 interior shelves. I've put trim all around the top to give it a nice look and used wood feet to lift it off the tiles to ensure no water gets under it should that ever be an issue.

I sanded this all back up to 120grit and was happy with it natural but due to the humidity in the shower/bath area it started to develop a mold spot. So I took it out and bathed it in 30seconds outdoor cleaner which is the easiest way to clean moss, mould, mildew and algae from hard exterior surfaces.

After letting it dry in the garage for 2 days (it was like an oven let me tell you!) I then gave it 2 coats of varnish.

Its been in the shower now for over 7 years and not a single issue (other than a bit of dust every so often 😒).

The start of the items done.

 Hello again!

I am going to start listing the items I've built or currently in the process of building as I go. Here is, in order of what I can remember I built first moving forward, some of the items with a brief description of the item and what is being done (if multiple pictures of the same item).

So with no further ado, here we go.

This one is the oldest that I can recall having been done.

It is a simple cook book shelf made of camphor laurel slab cut in two with some pine shelving.

 

 The three shelves give it a top shelf to place bulk items, the second is for tall food magazines and a cute corgi lunch bag.

The bottom shelf is for thin food mags as well as some recipe cards in a bag.

This was done prior to the Tiny She Shed even being conceptualized. I did this using a small circular saw and a drill.

Looking back now I see how far I've come in work standard. It's a good thing this is mine and I can still appreciate the roughness in it.

Throw back day

 Here is a picture of a wall art, decorative Wedding gift I made for a couple. They mostly have everything the average couple needs so it was something unique that they would cherish for the rest of their lives commemorating their special day.
