    Something for the young ladies to play with. Not oiled yet.

    SWMBO (alias "the Boss") says it looks like a bird house on wheels.

    Great job there TinyT.

    I agree with htl that it's Way cute, but I also agree with SWMBO that it reminds me of a birdhouse on wheels (only because of those two holes).

    On further analysis of this conundrum... a SWMBO will ALWAY outrank a htl.

    Please plug up those two holes. While I admire all of god’s creations... when those little blighters invade my roof line, they succeed in turning this docile Christian into an obnoxious and belligerent Philistine!

    Alexkara,
    You have a way with words that would not be remiss in a Court of Law. I agree SWMBO outranks an Htl, but also "christians " and "philistines". She is The Boss!
    Not really sure why I put the 2 holes in the mobile granny flat, I think I just couldn't stand the thought of a blank piece of timber OR I was hedging my bets incase the project didn't work-out and it did end up nailed to a local gum tree.

    G'day Crowie,
    No Plans, just scratch built out of my head. Based on that Jamie Oliver program where he drives through the country-side in a truck with a cabin on the back, cooking local foods.
    D'bago is 290mm tall, 460 mm long and 190 mm wide (12 X 18 X 7 1/2 inchs).
    Geoff

    Hey TinyT, Don't give those poms any credit... Just say your inspiration was from Ernie Dingo on one of his mobile walkabouts...

    PS. Extra brownie points for the scratch build... just keep the cookies away from the birds.

    That is just great, now draw it out so you have something to work from next time unless you are like me and only build one of anything.

    I especially like the way you have designed the openings to give maximum access for the girls to play
