🛠️🌿 A Fun Challenge at Kinsella Gardens! 🌿🛠️

We recently spent some time helping Kinsella Gardens build the backrest for a new gabion seat.

This wasn't your average woodworking job! The backrest is a live edge waterfall design, meaning the grain flows seamlessly around the corner. That meant the angles had to be spot on the first time—there's no room for mistakes when you're cutting a beautiful piece of Larch! 🌲

Before making the final cuts, we spent quite a while using offcuts to test and fine-tune the angles until we were completely happy. Once we knew everything lined up perfectly, it was time to make the real cuts... and thankfully, they came together exactly as planned! 🙌📐

It was definitely a bit of a head-scratcher, but we're really pleased with how it turned out. We can't wait to see the finished seating area in place for everyone to enjoy.
For those that might be interested, the mitre saw blade is set to 45 degrees, and the saw base is twisted to 15 degrees - a proper compound mitre cut.
The angles are as such because the seat backs lean back at 15 degrees.

It's always great to use our woodworking skills to support local gardeners and help create spaces that bring family and friends together. 💚

🌱💪 THBC Beds Ready for Planting! 💪🌱

After a full day of hard work from Hogarth and Ben, the raised beds at THBC are now ready to go! 🙌

They’ve been topped up with fresh soil and are all set for the next step, planting seeds 🌿✨

We’ve also left an area of wildflowers untouched, it was full of bees and butterflies 🐝🦋 a great reminder of how important these spaces are for local wildlife.

We’re getting closer to seeing this space come alive with flowers and produce for the community. Keep an eye out for planting updates! 💚
