Teahouse Parts List
I was originally planning to build the teahouse from sawn Red Cedar but, after a lot of thinking, I have decided to go for a material that is significantly lower cost and more in tune with an English garden - green oak.
Below is the list of parts I require. Of course an estimation as detailed design only occurs when actually building!
