- Finished and fitted the last mortice & tenon
- Painted the posts and rails with timber treatment
- Made a wooden cap to protect the top of the post while I 'persuaded' it into the metal post holder with a sledgehammer. The cap broke up on the final blow, but did its job.
- Final installation of the posts and rails for the first section. This took a bit of patience with only two hands but I got there in the end.
I clamped a few boards to the rail to give an idea of how they will look.
Today I started giving each featheredge board a light sand and paint. There's over 60 to do, so it's a good job I can listen to the cricket in the background!
