    The bulk of the cost would be the rental and initial setup. Thats in case you want to do something properly, not just a place to "work" but also a place where like minded people can meet, sit down for a coffee and discuss ideas... That requires quite a lot of capital and the returns will not be quick...

    Need a small block or thick (2-3cm) metal sheet for different home uses as anvil. Basically a steel bench block. 10-20cm x 10 cm and 3cm thick woudl do.. But I am not so particular about size (it's just a piece of metal that will get hammered alot :D )

    Anyone knows where to get such thing ? Or anyone has a piece of spare metal lying around ? :D

    you got to be a little more detailed in what you want. I woudl guess some wall hacking is to be involved unless if you want it external... again, more details are needed...

    word of advise, electricity is not to be played with (just in case you didnt know). best if you can switch off the main m or at least the specific branch you will be working on.

    I just figure this out. wine boxes make a good source of pine wood... if you need to "merge" a few smaller planks, Daisho ($2 shop) sells some thin strips of pine wood as well)

    Good luck ! (great idea btw. my son is 11months only but soon I will make one for him... )

    I've decided to go with a different approach. Instead of buying new planks (which still, only IKEA seams to be the source for) I will go with used wine crates. I have a few acquaintances working in wine shops and I've started collecting some wine boxes. Once I reach at least 10-15, I can take them apart and re-asamble them to form a large box.

    Somehow this approach seams to be more fun!

    (i shared this in case someone else might find the use of wine boxes a solution - like the guys who wanted to build a oversize ruler (to make kids height) )

    I'm planning a balcony herb garden and I need some custom size cut wood planks for the box. The wood can be of a lower quality, and light (pine?)

    Anyone know a carpenter where I can get that ? I intend to assemble the box myself, I just need the cut planks.

    Thanks.
