A Japanese timber framed garden shed

Both doors are now fit. I'm very happy with their motion.

If anything they slide too easily but that will be dampened when I add the weather stripping and have extra mass when I install the glass. That should happen next week.

Nice!

I've been working on a potting bench for the shed. The goal for this piece is to mostly use up scraps from around the shop or construction grade timbers, make it sturdy and durable, draw bored M&T joinery, minimal glue or metal fasteners. Not particularly Japanese esthetic except for being simple. The base is done and the top will be done this weekend.

The legs are western red cedar, rails and aprons are Douglas fir. The top is laminated from a mix of boards from my stash that were too gnarly for furniture but fine for this. It includes black cherry, butternut, sycamore, white oak, and madrone. Plywood shelves will drop in the rebates in the rails.
