Undercoated door.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Our first full day back home, after the barge experience. I\u2019m painting the first of three doors. Look at those very cute little hinges!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ll prob\u2019 do two coats of green, and poss\u2019 the same number for the internal off-white face? Mounting this door will be interesting! The pins or nails supplied are too long for some of these mountings. They\u2019d protrude!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I might have to do some kind of trial run, or mock up? As I don\u2019t want to butcher the model at this stage. I\u2019m also not sure how I\u2019ll fix it in place. Poss\u2019 I can cut the nails\/pins down, and superglue them in situ\u2019?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do I have it opening internally or externally? The equivalent door on the old\/original shed opens inwards. But this loses us precious internal space. I\u2019d rather it opened outwards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nearly mounted the door\u2026<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

How then mount it? So the cladding doesn\u2019t interfere with operations? Hmmm\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rather annoyingly, if not unexpectedly, mounting the door hasn\u2019t been straightforward. Just as with hanging a real door, it\u2019s always tricky. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this instance, the fixing points in the structural frame were above hollows, as opposed to being over\/through structural beams. I\u2019ve had to glue in blocks, for the pins to mount to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And in doing so, a bit of damage has been done to some cladding. Hey-ho! It\u2019ll just need patching up, I s\u2019pose!? I\u2019ve had to order new micro drill bits, as I can\u2019t find any of my old ones.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
