Bamboo No Bargain 2022

 Bamboo No Bargain 2022

After constant nagging from my boyfriend I decided to by some new Soap Dishes. He was complaining about lack of Drainage. This is an irony that I was to see later.

Bamboo Mould

 

First of all they arrived Broken. I hadn’t decided to make a project of it at that point. I had bought 2 Soap Dishes. They were not as I thought a complete set with Top Bottom and Grill Centre. I naturally complained.

I was refunded but thought rather than try ordering again I merely Glued the parts back together. The Grill is not shown in the photograph.

More Mould

 

Even though I had repaired them I hadn’t realised that they hadn’t been treated. Therefore Mould had started to build up event though it was only a day or two of usage.

New Drill Set

 

Realising that these Dishes not only were not treated but also had no Drainage holes my boyfriend couldn’t wait to play with my new Drill Set and add some.

Five Spots

 

After a quick wipe down. We got a Pencil and Measure and drew Five Spots to indicate where to Drill. It reminded us of a side of a Dice (yes puritans Dice not Die because we did both Bottoms)

Drilled Holes

 

My boyfriend did the Drilling. Using the Smallest Drill Bit he could he Drilled carefully into the Bamboo. We could always widen them later if need be.

Drilled Holes Inside

 

The Drilling cause the Bamboo on the Inside to pucker. This would be sorted by the Sanding. This was my next job after another wipe to get rid of excess dust.
