    It was just some water based wood stain/preserver from Wilkos

    Cheers!

    So....... here it is! Got lots of chopping of my large logs to complete that I'll do this week but started filling it with my supply already. Should last a while!

    My wifes best friend was up for weekend so myself and her fiancee thought we could take it on. We loaded up his Merc Vito with pallets which we stripped of nails, bought some serious screws/plugs for brickwork and some batton and the total cost for this was about £7. Not bad considering ebay has ones a quarter the size for £100. Not going to paint it etc as I like the mismatch and rusticness. Took approx 4hrs and it rained nearly every second of it. Hope you like :)

    Great work. Looks like that should be good for several cubic metres.
