The parents have bought a summerhouse. They're gutting it to turn it into a place where they can stay all year round. The family helps out, of course - today @farfarsyxaleather and myself assists with demolition in the smaller cabin. #bohmandestroys - #bohmanbuilds - https://www.flickr.com/photos/bohman/53075392218
Really happy with this patio. We got way more space here than I thought - I didn't see that until we got some furniture in place. Time to get a proper barbeque? - #bohmanbuilds - https://www.flickr.com/photos/bohman/53045342641
A year in the making, but today we finally put the last tiles in! All we need to do now is some final touches and find some nice outdoor furniture. Phew. - #bohmanbuilds - https://www.flickr.com/photos/bohman/53002958343
As our family DnD campaign nears its end, I'm once againg immortalizing our characters as Brickheadz. Twice makes a tradition! From the left: Kolm the Monk, T'jej the Wizard, Chima the Fighter, Vlaakith the big bad, and Lucida, the gunslinger/artificer. We've been playing these characters for three years or so. Time flies! #lego #brickheadz - #bohmanbuilds - https://www.flickr.com/photos/bohman/52987534312

Just found out about an offcut challenge hosted by @dainermade! I'm experimenting with creating usable material out of (almost) unusable offcuts, so it seems like the perfect time to see if I can make something out of these. I mean, at least a box or two before end of August? I'll try to make time when the kids have gone to bed 😅 #offcutsonly23 - #bohmanbuilds - https://www.flickr.com/photos/bohman/52955454799
The cabinet was built to hold these old drawers I got from @adamgerthel. The plan was to add a top and put it on casters to get an extra work surface on demand, but I completely forgot to account for the white brackets. So will be unfinished for a bit, but at least I can fill the drawers with my useful junk while I contemplate next steps. - #bohmanbuilds - https://www.flickr.com/photos/bohman/52952445398
Finished sanding and applied a coat of oil to this cabinet. The reclaimed wood look is not for everyone, but I dig it. This got wood from pallets, a bed, a table, an IKEA cabinet - even some found in bushes. #reclaimedwood - #bohmanbuilds - https://www.flickr.com/photos/bohman/52950734823
I recently shot some pictures for @lagstandard. They're a cool band, slightly worse than your favourite band, so it makes sense for them to enlist a photographer that's slightly worse than your favourite photographer. You should totally book them for that thing you need a band for! #malmo - #bohmanbuilds - https://www.flickr.com/photos/bohman/52937259810
Been gluing and sanding these panels for a month. Now I'm finally at the stage sane people, who buy premade stock, are. I can finally cut the parts for this simple cabinet. #reclaimedwood - #bohmanbuilds - https://www.flickr.com/photos/bohman/52914031536
Sun is out, time to make the garden nice! The first task of the year was to use some reclaimed stones to build a platform for this little greenhouse we bought last year. Found some cat poop. Ew. - #bohmanbuilds - https://www.flickr.com/photos/bohman/52836879135
I've sorted the wood roughly by character and colour - I'm ready to make some big-arse cabinet panels! But that'll be tomorrows adventure. This would've been so much easier and faster if I bought some plywood. But hey, this way we save some trees and have fun at the same time! - #bohmanbuilds - https://flic.kr/p/2ostMzm
I'm making a lot of these panels for a cabinet build. To have a place to store them I put up this shelving system. - #bohmanbuilds - https://www.flickr.com/photos/bohman/52806769991
Current status of my LEGO typography collection. As I find more in the house (and in various second hand lots) I'm setting a few rules. It has to be a printed brick, and it has to be (mostly) words or letters. The yellow bricks at the bottom are probably disqualified, but here they are for now. When it's gotten larger I'll frame it and hang it on the wall. #lego #typography - #bohmanbuilds - https://www.flickr.com/photos/bohman/52800995538

Added a LED strip to provide lighting for detail work. I'll eventually put a small piece of trim in front of it so it doesn't blind you when looking at it from the front, but I'm already happy with how bright it is. The space is really usable now. #legoroom - #bohmanbuilds - https://www.flickr.com/photos/bohman/52764323872
Built a small plant in a hanging glass bulb last night. The build was pretty quick and simple, but getting it into the bulb required a fair amount of patience. #lego - #bohmanbuilds - https://www.flickr.com/photos/bohman/52749552723
Do you know how AirPods have such good noise cancelling? AI. #apple #airpods - #bohmanbuilds - https://www.flickr.com/photos/bohman/52748075095
I don't really need any more projects, but found this piece and fell in love with the design. I will restore and preserve the exterior. Not sure about the interior. Try to save the record player? Replace it with a more modern music system? Maybe rig the controls to do something else and learn a bit of arduino and electrical work? We shall see! - #bohmanbuilds - https://www.flickr.com/photos/bohman/52735123328
Been using these red boxes to sort my bricks for a while. They're good, but hard to use when stacked. Solved that problem by building this shelving rack out of mostly reclaimed timber. Happy with the functionality, but wish I would've spent more energy to make it pretty. I have so many things I want to get to a functional level in the space so this have to do for now. Maybe I'll revisit it in the future. #legosorting - #bohmanbuilds - https://www.flickr.com/photos/bohman/52728808398
Testing shelving configurations. This is just rough pallet wood, but once I know the layout I want I'll make proper shelves. Being able to tinker with this inbetween taking care of Jule and our newborn is really relaxing. I'm a lucky guy. - #bohmanbuilds - https://www.flickr.com/photos/bohman/52719444335
I need the shelf above the building area to be a single board to accomodate led strips for lighting. You can't buy shelves in those dimensions... so I'm once again occupying the living room with a glue-up. Looking forward to summer when I can do these things outside. Thanks for putting up with me, family! - #bohmanbuilds - https://www.flickr.com/photos/bohman/52711666611
