Well done, Mum!

We had a barbecue that hardly ever got used. We have another barbecue - a newer one - but it's not going in the same tray that the old barbecue sat in. Not sure why...might be due to the size of it, or something like that. Anyway! Instead of just getting rid of the old tray table the old barbecue sat in Mum decided to turn it into a full table to be used for holding things when having a barbecue or salads, etc. To do that, she had to put five new slats in the top to match the other ones that were already there. This is the result she has achieved, before she paints it roughly the same green as the back fence.

(And it's the photo for today in the challenge.)

Mum's great job at fixing up the old barbecue tray table
This isn't another flash photo, but she's done a great job, considering she hadn't used a chisel to get grooves at a certain depth before. I contributed only slightly by nailing in some of the old timbers at one end, and demonstrating how to chisel out the grooves.

Well done, Mum. Great job.
