tony b Posted May 17, 2020 Report Share Posted May 17, 2020 You're going to need to beef up that chandelier chain if you're planning on doing any swinging from it! 🤣 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basher Posted May 20, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2020 I’m not swinging off those lights tony.Fire pit is done.I’m half way through mixing 9m3 of cow dung into the beds.That filled the drive way...... and the foot path. Had to move that bit quickly before council came looking.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacKenzie Posted May 20, 2020 Report Share Posted May 20, 2020 (edited) I'll say you'd better get used up mighty quickly, like before sunrise. It looks wonderful, your plants are going to grrrrow. Nice fire pit area, you should have lots of fun times around that. Edited May 20, 2020 by MacKenzie 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrus Posted May 20, 2020 Report Share Posted May 20, 2020 Save some for the orchard. Move it quick, someone might steal it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basher Posted May 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 I’ve been really looking forward to this splashback going in. This is a single sheet across the back of black limestone from Canada. Well, the stone masons thought it cut like a hard soapstone and although it came from Canada, they thought it may have been mined in Montana. Mostly they are cutting it up as kitchen bench tops. It has a grain running through it like a petrified timber grain. All this started from a desire to properly house the KK.

MacKenzie Posted May 22, 2020 Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 Basher, gotta love that Canadian touch. That IS a bonfire. Here's a chair for your bonfire area- 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tekobo Posted May 22, 2020 Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 I love that bench around your fire pit @Basher. Beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basher Posted May 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 Thanks Tekobo, it’s river red gum slabs milled from a friends property. The same as the kitchen bench and also the posts. No chance Mac. I’ll fly your flag with the splash back..... unless the Montanians want to claim it?

Tyrus Posted May 22, 2020 Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 (edited) Very nice and comfy cozy. A Zen Buddhism temple, let's meditate and toast a marshmallow. Better yet, throw some appetizers on the KK, put some Sinatra on, and pour me a glass of Au finest. Edited May 22, 2020 by Tyrus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting very close to an end to this journey... or just the beginning.I’ve just finished listening to Michael Pollan’s book. Very interesting. Old science becoming trendy again.I’m still keeping a lazy eye out for the KK mascot.Troble, you need to find your mascot too.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing can replace that firepit bench! I was thinking the white plastic chair could be relocated and a red Canadian comfie would go with that black backsplash. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrus Posted May 22, 2020 Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 (edited) If you were lucky enough to buy this in 1972 it would have run you a smackin $12. Today it's $385, not your average 2 buck chuck.
