The portal to the caged garden is now finished. It finally got a coat of Falu red paint.
Complete with votive torii from The Fushimi Inari Shinto Temple near Kyoto.
For all practical purposes the portal to (and from) the caged garden is finished.
The shelves and work bench are in place.
The portable bench on the other side is ready too. It is perfect size for prone position. I’m looking forward to many afternoon siestas there. It can also be used as a second work bench.
For now, the portal will serve very well for parking one of the bicycle carts I’ve fixed. It also has a chicken wire gate to keep trespassers out.
The only thing that’s left to do is to give it a coat of Falu Red paint in the spring and make the inevitable necessary embellishments.
Then on to the next building project.
