New Project
So, we started with a piece of MDF 16" x 33" and mine was 18mm thick and as always its down to your choice. These dimensions are personal preference.
Then, draw a rectangle or shape required on the MDF . . . 3 x rectangles 265mm depth on the first and last rectangle and a width of 210mm . The centre section was a width 210mm of and a depth of 375mm. The end section is for the staircase a width of 210mm x 265mm. I then pinned a piece of flat timber 1 /4" x 3/4" to it making sure it was all square . See Fig.1
Next, cut 10 pieces of timber 8" long, 3/4" square if its available, or if your fortunate. . . rip your own. . . at least you know its square.
Forming the base
Mix a batch of plaster to a creamy consistency and fill in one section at a time, as each section starts to dry mark out your flagstone floor as shown in Fig's 2 and 3. Not sure? Check out FLAGSTONE FLOOR
Well, that's stage one over.
