Fire surround

That is very cool, you’ve captured the rustic look. Not familiar with red deal, it looks like knotty pine. Just curious, what would that lumber cost in Ireland. Thanks for posting.

-- Dale West Central Pa. Do it all, before last call.

Dale-thanks for the compliment.
It cost 43 euro for 15ft of 9” x 3”, and yes its knotty pine.

That looks so rugged…nice details , and I like your use of the fasteners. Great idea : )
So you spent some time in Boston I read on your homepage. I live in Western Massachusetts : )
Did you do any “exploring” when you were here, John ?

-- When did quiet and quite become the same word ? I'm guessing about the same time as your and you're did.

Dusty56, i lived in Dorchester and worked in Newton mostly doing finish work fo r2 Irish Carpentry contractors.
I travelled as far as Buffalo, NY and to the other banks in north Carolina for vacations.
Great country, i was lucky to have 2 brothers in New Hampshire on soccer scholarships also.

So all the boys were Stateside…..not so good for our mam, you know how mammy’s miss their boys when they are not around to keep an eye on :-)

Very nice indeed! I would like to see it installed in its perminant environment.

Glad you enjoyed your stay in the States , John : )

the installer was kind enough to send me a photo of the fire surround in its final setting.
It had a satin varnish applied to it.
