Tin Ceiling Project:

Photographs kindly supplied by Gary and Dot McCosh of Warrnambool in Victoria

Gary is a builder by trade.  He specializes in using recycled materials in his building projects.  You can see some of his work here at Stonecutters Inn which he and Dot own and run.

Unfortunately, original pressed metal panels are very hard to source in sufficient amounts for a project so Gary chose to use our new ceiling panels in this project, which incidentally is going to be his home.

The panels we sell are identical to those made 100 years ago so they have suited his project perfectly.  He and Dot chose Magnolia for the main part of their ceiling and Roses cornice to complement it.  The Magnolia panels are surrounded by a moulding strip and by Stockholm used as a border.

Gary made himself a framework to support his panels whilst he nailed them.  By
using a timber support he was able to install the panels by himself much faster.


Gary has built the walls from 180 year old re-claimed sandstone.

 

He used Dulux high gloss enamel paint in half-strength "York Stone" colour.

 

 

You can see tiny pressed metal rosettes where the moulding strips meet.

 

The bench tops have been made from Red Gum railway sleepers. 
If  you look closely you will see the railway spikes are still in them.

 

 

Gary was so impressed by the metal ceiling that he has decided to use them in many
more projects.  He thoroughly enjoyed the installation process to the extent that he is
making himself available to others who would like him to install their ceilings.  He can
be contacted by telephoning 0427 136 660 or by emailing him at Stonecutters Inn.
