Brian,
I am in awe with your build, every time I go away and come back a bit more genious has happened....
As for the cleanliness of you model room, those cables under the bench need a tidy up and do I detect a speck of dust on the lampshade ;)

I was looking for a build that was a bit unusual and just came across this on YouTube then looked in to getting one (not that easy as there discontinued) but found the first one on amazon and the second private sale in Liverpool
