Escuela Lipingue helps neighborsPosted by Paul in Agriculture, DIY, Landscaping, tags: Escuela Agricola Lipingue, Huerta 11, Lipingue, QuilaEarly spring. I just bought a small piece of property, an extension of Huerta 11. The fencing had to be redone. The Escuela Agricola Lipingue helped us out. In one sunny afternoon we did the whole 200 meters. Since the first day we came to live here in Lipingue the wooden structure over the ditch collapsed. Today I decided to do something about it… Finally we get to the point that the greenhouse can be used. Not a minute too late. Although we are in the middle of winter here, the sun is shining and the temperature is very agreeable inside the greenhouse. I think the plants will like it, as we liked the champain for the official opening… After the sixth day, it is now the xth day of building the greenhouse. The small details took a lot of time, but finally the inner structure is ready, now I only have to remove the tools, clamp the boards and make the floor a bit better and… The framework is done, the only thing left is the cover and the interior… Most precise job is cutting the rafters to fit

Beautiful day to be outside and work on the greenhousePosted by Paul in Agriculture, DIYAnd that is exactly what I did. Slow progress?I’m not too unhappy about it. Switching between designing, sanding, oiling, sawing and putting the pieces together without catastrophic mistakes…it could have been worse. Between the rain showers there was just enough time not to get wet and make the foundations of the Greenhouse. Some people have a second house, others have a second car or a second-hand car, I have a second wood-storage place. Here some pictures of what once was a horse-shed. |
