The project

 

I'm a novice woodworker, but have found all the posts on Workshop to be educational and inspirational. I have a passion for recycled timber and pallet projects – it’s cheap and environmentally friendly. 

 

I built this dog kennel using recycled pallet timber. It has a small gap at the rear for water drainage and her bed just folds in two so you can pull it through the front of the kennel.

Hi mate would you by any chance have any dimensions of this? 

Door size, apex of roof height, side height and the width and length of the flooring? 
thanks mate.

Hi @frazer 

 

Unfortunately I don’t have the kennel in my possession anymore. A friends dog needed it more. 

My kennel was made for the beautiful Zola, my Border collie, she’s a medium to large breed so the kennel size could be different depending on the dog. 


I’ll try to get some measurements over the coming days. 

Kind Regards

Spencer
