Its curtains for me

One of the things I like about projects like this is that it introduces new skills.  With that in mind, I have decided to make my own curtains.  Before that can happen though, I need something to hang them on.  My plan is to use some of the old 22mm pipe I removed from the heating system.  This is secured using 'munsen' ring fittings with some wooden draw knobs as finials.

I have also finally got around to cutting up the bedside cabinet that will cover the water pump.  Its held in place with only a couple of screws so is easily removed.  The fake front panel will be detatchable for easy access to the water shut off valve and the pump switch.  Sadly, I ran out of time before I could paint it.
