I don't know what you do for a living but for me carpentry is pergolas and the like and making kitchens/ coffee tables is cabinet-making. I am very calm and not offended (I offend others apparently) and try not to be a hypocrite.

All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

Finally did the corner braces today!
It didn’t really need them, but I just felt it wasn’t quite finished as it was.
So hand sawed the offcuts of 6x6, then sanded and finally had to plane some of the top sides to fit between the beams.
Didn’t get pics after the sanding stage

Infra red heater!!!!
Powered by long extension lead at the moment, got to get power run to the pergola to do it properly.
Not the hottest heater out there, but seems to give enough, will see if it’s any good when it gets colder.
