Meet Phil, the Man the Myth the Legend! Phil prefers to stay behind the scenes but we thought it was important to introduce everyone to our extremely talented Site Manager for the Chapel Build. He always has a smile on his face. And isn’t afraid of a little hard work. Austen and Phil have been working…
Porch Life
Everyone loves a before and after picture and although the porch isn’t finished just yet, we thought we would share a quick update with you. Before : The dark black pointed frame gave the chapel a much older look and feel than we wanted, so we gave it a small lift. The board going…
Side Profile
A picture can be quite deceiving, the expression ‘Don’t judge a book by its Cover’ really fits here. To the naked eye, the side extension of the Chapel looks rather small, its only when you it see from a different angle, and notice that a 6ft man in the door actually looks small in comparison, that…
The Workshop
If you look at the Chapel build from a Birdseye view, it’s shaped like a T. The Top of the T is actually where our workshop will be and it has certainly seen a lot of developments in the past week. The roof has come such a long way internally and externally. You can see…
Cobwebbed Chapel
One of the local residences of Whitchurch, Noel Privett, sent in this absolutely beautiful picture he captured one dewy morning. We absolutely love it! In fact we aren’t the only ones as it was featured in the Silk Mill Calendar for the month of July! Isn’t it wonderful! If you have captured any pictures of the…
Remote controlled Crane
Ever seen a remote controlled Crane before? The trick was to find a small enough crane to be able to manoeuvre the beam but also be strong enough to carry it up, with the beam weighing in at nearly 300 Kilos we had to make sure we got it right!
It’s Here!
The chapel sign has finally arrived! So if you couldn’t find us in Whitchurch before you shouldn’t have any problems now! A rather sizeable 8.5ft tall! Make sure you keep an eye out for us!
MAYbe the busiest month so far
With every month that passes, we get busier and busier. May has seen so many different developments, let’s recap a few! Every aspect of the Chapel build gets our full attention, from the garage doors to the colour of the guttering. Water holes were emptied and filled with concrete before the beams and concrete blocks…
Thank you Whitchurch!
A huge thank you to the Whitchurch community for being so supportive of 3fD’s build at the Chapel! Obtaining planning permission can be a long and complicated process, but the Whitchurch Town Council have assisted in every way they can. The support of the Whitchurch Town council, and the Whitchurch community has been invaluable. Thank you!
Floor Time
After the holes in the floor were emptied of water the concrete went in..finally! The concrete needed to dry first, then the beams were put in place ready for the blocks to slide in. Then the satisfying moment of smoothing the concrete on-top of the long awaited floor! We have to admit, its…
A Team Visit
The ground floor is finally in and the 3fD team wanted to test the waters and have a look around at all the exciting developments that have been happening in the Chapel as of late. Don’t step back – that’s wet concrete floor in the entrance. It is changing so much! We can really see ourselves…
