      Hi Bob
      A very nice modelling space in the making. Good progress already so shouldn't take too long. Make sure you have enough electric sockets.

        More done, but it's stopped for a while, both the builder and electrician are now on holiday, bugger.

        The sockets need to be moved off the wall and extra sockets fitted as well. there's a worktop going across the front of the window and along most of the wall to the left, will be plenty of room for the booths and to eventually do a 1/200 ship

        The hole above is just to allow easy access, will be sealed

        Next up is to be a door in the left hand wall. The photo is taken through the new model room door

                We’ll it’s bigger than the one I used for twenty odd years Bob. It was about seven by five in old money…..when I cleared it for the house move (so it looked like an “office” to purchasers) I was amazed at how much stuff I had crammed into it…….

                      Well if it’s a big old floaty thing Bob, you’ll have to get Mrs Stug to smash a bottle of champagne on the door to declare it open….l

                            Trust you Mark :smiling2: I was thinking about OSB floor on battens, mainly to keep it slightly warmer and more pleasant to stand on .
