PARRAMATTA DISTRICT MEN’S SHED DELIVERS ON CHICKEN COUP

  Delivery to Courtlands of chicken coup

Courtlands Retirement Village contains a wing for Dementia patients, So as part of their care, staff at Courtlands decided to see how a Chicken Coup would work as an activity.

Courtlands approached our shed to build a custom coup. A couple of our men decide it would be a great challenge …. one of the men having never built anything like this previously. So after some plan drawing and minor changes from Courtlands’ “Sherene Noble” the project started.

After several months of steady work and some head scratching the men finished the coup to the absolute delight of Sherene …..

  Final resting place

  Patients can see the coup from the lounge area

Courtlands are so excited with their new chicken coup and will be introducing chickens to their new home quickly.

ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL outcome thanks to wonderful group of volunteers having fun!!!!!

  Anzac day white crosses

ANZAC DAY Crosses delivered

Our shed was approached to construct approximately 20 white crosses. These were to then be individually engraved with the veteran’s name. The veteran was a Parramatta citizen.

The crosses had to be of specific dimensions and the crossbar had to be made so it could be engraved and then re-assembled.

This project was done in record time …. we had about two weeks notice from concept to delivery …..

ANOTHER JOB WELL RECEIVED, ON TIME AND LOOKING FANTASTIC.

  LING’s Garden toolBox

Garden Box for Sorrel Lane Parramatta

As part of the close working relationship with Parramatta City Council and the UPCYCLE project, our shed was requested to make a Garden Box for the Sorrel Lane community garden.

The brief was that it had to be constructed from recycled materials. It had to be lockable and secured in concrete footings for the storage of garden tools.

Our inventive men set to work gathering old hardwood fences and surplus timbers from patios. They constructed the box and then delivered it to site.

  Garden Box for Sorrel Lane community garden

Locks were sourced and fitted. The timber was finished with weatherproofing varnish

and sanded and cleaned to make sure there were no exposed corners or items that could cause an injury by way of scratches on the like.

  Attaching the lock

On site holes were dug and the metal legs cemented in making sure that it will never be moved or removed form the site easily.

JOB WELL DONE BOYS ……….
