This picture goes with a short blog post I wrote about the few weeks I spent living in Enschede. Instead of paying rent, I traded my handyman skill for free accommodation. I did 25 hours of work in the house and the owner let me live there for free.
Looking at the picture, you may think I was making a bench for the garden. That’s not the case.
The girl who owned the house bought super-sized mattress that was too large for her bed. She asked me to build a wooden support to attach to the side of the bed and support the overhanging mattress from underneath.
After I’d taken the measurements, I drew up some plans and got to work. The picture shows the support before I added the legs. Sawing and drilling wood makes a mess so I was working outside.
That’s the explanation about why this picture is here. If you want to read the blog post I uploaded it for, you can do so here: Working Hard in Rent-Free Accommodation in Enschede
