What would you all say if I rebuilt a 1 meter long fence with 8 dyna bolts, 40 nails and 4 steel plates?

Close, but much less Broadway and more techno-polka.

"You crazy!"

Nails don't work on steel plates

Sure nails work on steel!

Works well too.

All the 30 year old dowel joints in the timber framefor the fence were 'loose' so I just got some steel plates to hold the pieces together. I used the corrugated iron itself to hold the timber crossmember up and it is holding the entire frame in tension!That is part of the reason why I have 40 nails used rather then the original 18. As for the 8 dyna bolts, I used 5 of them at the bottom of the frame and another 3 on a new piece of timber attached to the wall of the house. Because I used only 2 steel plates to hold the joints together, I used the other two to join the old frame to the new post on the wall. Now, it is all very rigid.

I just wish the gate was a standard size, not custom made! It looks like crap.

However, one of the people who was chipping in went out and bought a bottle at almost the same time due to a little misunderstanding.

Therefore, sitting on the table right on front of me is a bottle of wine worth more than I am, with no immediate purpose.

I don't think I can bear leaving it alone until the next 21st comes along.

I predict its consumption within weeks.

Alcohol is life's saviour. Dependancy gives purpose. Remember this, my child.
