kennett Posted September 23, 2018 Report Share Posted September 23, 2018 A while ago I asked for advice about how much chimney I could knock out. I took everyone's advice, knocked out the new opening which I pinned and put a new lintel in. By far the hardest part was getting my plastering to look half decent, it looks ok from a distance if you squint! Just finished putting the shelf up with some brackets I made my self from a slab of Ash, horse shoes and some flat steel. I didn't think it looked too bad for a bodger on a budget!

figgy Posted September 23, 2018 Report Share Posted September 23, 2018 Looks great, you may need a fender round your riven slate hearth to stop your carpet getting ruined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
