First stop in France, cooking #coffee the hard way! #roadtrip #portugal #spain #france #belgium #netherlands ...

The rain didn't come... Instead a major bushfire threatening lots of homes... When our car wouldn't have broken down a few hours before we wanted to leave on a trip to the #netherlands , we would drive there... An omen? #portugal #redsky #bushfire (at Forest Alqueidao)

45 degrees... And some coolness is on the way. #portugal #thunder #workinginparadise #notjustsawdust (at Forest Alqueidao)

Made a mess in the workshop of some friends today... Happy with the results of a day's work though. #portugal #notjustsawdust #workinginparadise #cabaços #woodworking

Making a bracket to put the spare wheel on the back of the van. More space inside to load ... Now Mirjam will crochet a cover.... #notjustsawdust #notmakingsawdust #portugal #workinginparadise #iveco #coffeebreak #crochet

Almost 40 degrees °C , should be #woodworking but thinking how nice cold #cactus juice could refresh... Nah.. don't own the right gloves. #coffee it is... . #portugal #workinginparadise #notmakingsawdust #notjustsawdust (at Forest Alqueidao)

A finished, thought to be impossible, staircase. The model I made 20 times bigger... It works! #beech #pine and #eucalyptus railings. #workinginparadise #portugal #woodworking (at Cabaços, Leiria, Portugal)

A sensible use for a plastic #pushstick ... Repairing a broken door handle on the #shop-van #notmakingsawdust #portugal #backonline (at Not Just Sawdust Workshop)

No internet for 9 days at the Lonesome Hill.. working on the shop-van... Replacing broken plastic with old fashioned quality of hardwood...#notjustsawdust #meo #fail forced to drink #coffee to have internet access...#portugal (at Pastelaria , Padaria Rosa Do Zezere)

Since our provider isn't able to fix the internet within 5 days... More Time to spend on painting the van... No knowledge of what's going on in the world outside Alqueidao. #portugal #notmakingsawdust #coffee on terras with free #wifi (at Not Just Sawdust Workshop)

#notmakingsawdust first coat of primer on the roof of our shop-van. Yes, one litre of yellow industrial paint in stock so... Easy choice. #workinginparadise #notjustsawdust #portugal #iveco (at Not Just Sawdust Workshop)

On my way to a job site.. that's why I call it #workinginparadise #portugal although with 38 degrees Celsius.... (at Cabaços, Leiria, Portugal)

#notmakingsawdust this week.. the mint-green van, our shop van since 1999 is technically repaired up to almost new. Now it's time to get rid of the rust.. it's not going to stay #mint-green but well let's say we're inspired by #portuguese colours.. #notjustsawdust #workinginparadise (at Not Just Sawdust Workshop)

Project finished! Doorbells are working. Video on the making of... tomorrow online at our YouTube channel. #portugal #recyclingforaliving #makingsawdustforaliving #workinginparadise (at Not Just Sawdust Workshop)

Experiment: just annoyed of this battery operated door bell breaking down all the time. The perfect moment to go back to analog! #workinginparadise #portugal #weekend #notjustsawdust (at Not Just Sawdust Workshop)

Is that a deer hanging on the fence or could it be just 2 old table legs, a pewter dish and some doorknob? #creative #recycling #portugal #primavera🌸 #notjustsawdust #gardenwork (at Not Just Sawdust Workshop)
