I keep toying with the idea of building one of these, but I never seem to have the time at the moment, so all my projects are restricted to the conceptulise/design stages...like my dome cloche and brick barbeque

[Bigmallly]

Keep designing Ollie, at least then when you do get the time, all of the thinking has been done.

Here you go. Now I'm home I thought you might appreciate two of my current designs I've not got round to putting into practice...yet:

The 'Everyone Cooks' barbeque:


and my design for a wood and polythene greenhouse. It's designed with raised beds inside it as I'd have to build it on a patch of concrete.

Brilliant Ollie, just love the "Everyone Cooks" BBQ.

I'm planning on building it just outside my back door and then decking around it. It was my brother's idea, but I made the design, gets rid of that issue where the 'cook' ends up with their back to the party. This way everyone joins in, and you can cook and eat at the same time.

Genius.........until the smoke starts.............

Could always make it gas.

Another 2 great ideas and designs. I think the poly tunnel is great because it can stand on any surface or no need for a base at all if there is enough soil in the raised beds or the timber is heavy enough !
Keep up the good work !

Thanks

My original design was slightly different, but I added the wooden window panels as I felt it would add rigidity and also provide more room as the sides would be vertical for longer before the tubes used on the roof began. Still fairly simpe though.

Very smart Ollie! I have a raised bed in the 'high end' of my lean to type greenhouse and prefer bed gardening to pot gardening!

PS Nice hairstyle!
