It looks brilliant. I'm looking at getting a similar one, but the 25mm frame rather than 19mm.
Can I ask, how big was the packaging? Did you get it delivered straight to the plot or to your home?
Thanks.Likac66

I think you are wise going for the 25mm frame although it will still need some serious anchoring especially if it's in the open as mine is. The box was approx 5ft x 2ft x 9". I carried it under one arm.Originally posted by Likac66 View Postsigpic“Gorillas are very intelligent, but they don't have to be as delicate as chimps -- they can just smash open the termite nest,”

That's what I thought too BB - because my inside arm measurement is a mere 16" - armpit to wristOriginally posted by bearded bloke View PostThat folks is the advantage of having gorilla arms

Sorry to tangentise but here is a bit of useless info I picked up in my tailoring days, using this theory of 16" VC, I am estimating your total height @ 5ft 4".Originally posted by veggiechicken View PostThat's what I thought too BB - because my inside arm measurement is a mere 16" - armpit to wrist This is one of the few vital statistics that I'm prepared to share

I must have long arms, BM, as I'm a mere 5ft 2" on a good day.
Hope you can't work out anything else from one measurement

It was a theory used when constructing patterns, I'll be surprised if Jules hasn't heard of it with her dress making skills.sigpic“Gorillas are very intelligent, but they don't have to be as delicate as chimps -- they can just smash open the termite nest,”

Just checked all the other measurements - very accurate
I seem to remember something similar for drawing people - but that's a long time ago
