Re: outdoor

Cool... I too will be watching for progress photos! It does look like a huge job! I'm sure it will be worth all the work in the end!

Re: outdoor

That's a good size, Udo. Will it be one single enclosure, or a group of several?

Re: outdoor

It is my most loved toy, Kev
The German name is "Wiedehopfhacke"
It´s a hack and an axe in one.
Maybe you can find the English name

Re: outdoor

As it happens, I may have made progress already.... we actually discussed it today without it being dismissed out of hand. So any aid in convincing her that it would actually look 'nice' can only help at this stage.

Re: outdoor

You know James.........
it's the aesthetics that probably has her the most skeptical. Women want things to look nice. Our partners' projects don't always fit the description. So I say, get the book, and let her look at how nice they can be. Has she seen the pictures Udo put up of the outdoor enclosure his friend had? That one was especially attractive.
