Briiiiidge - personal project 2d round - December 2020 - By Louise

  Yééééééé ! Except two or three « little » things (sorry Matjaz and Maja), I finished my personal project, youhou ! I'm so happy ! I didn't do a second shelf, but the « bridge » for the orchard that I spoke about in one of my previous wonderful articles !
Here the main steps of the work :
                   → selecting and sanding the pieces of wood (the sanding was finally useless with the burning of the wood I think)
                   → sanding the metal support of the bridge
                   → painting the metal structure 3 times
                   → protecting the wood against mouldiness
                   → burning the wood with a kinda big torch gas who makes flames
                   → screw the wood on the bridge

I think what I prefered was the burning and the screwing !
I used tools I never used before this year and I'm quite proud : electric wood sander, electric metal sander, metal drill, gasoline generator.
It took quite some time. I was late, so I did most of it the two or three last weeks (I'm not proud of it). It was sometimes a bit adventurous, when I walked to the orchard and work at night (which comes at 5 pm we know at this season) several times (because i didn't go earlier in my free days ; others times because we finished working at 4). I worked also in some daily afternoon and it was nice !
   
    Anyway, the main conclusion of my personal project is that I feel stronger and having more manual skills ! So I'm very happy ! And the bridge look really nice, you'll have a photo soon !!!
