The Reunings' railway sleeper water feature

Dear Kilgraney, Sorry about the delay in sending these in but it took longer than expected. First I had to wait for the chains on the saw to be sharpened and then some bad weather hit. When it finally got better I had to get stuck into laying paving stones. I finally got back to the timbers a couple of weeks ago and finished up.....(continued)Dear Kilgraney....(continued) So, here it is, I want to send one more picture later in the summer after the plants have grown and are in bloom. Yeah, I know it looks homemade but so it is! We really like it as do most of our friends. Things to mention: - Remember working with sleepers and a chain saw isn't exactly like working with normal wood and a miter box…In other words cutting angles and even lengths are very inexact and at best an estimation so plan on it - I cut some of the beams in half length wise…this really dulls the cutting chain fast! At the beginning I was cut straight down from one end to the other, in the end I found it was much better to cut about an inch deep down the entire length then go back an cut another inch
