The last baseboard

So I see we have lost all the images from the recent server problem. Oh well mine weren't that interesting just lots of wood frame and plywood!

 

Nearly finished the 3 month marathon of building baseboards and other woodwork and getting it installed. I have now completed 14 baseboards and 15 top decks. Still to do are two 650mm long removable bridge sections and the main 1.2m long (x200mm wide)  control panel. I was rather pleased that after all the builds around the room I was only about 10mm out horizontally.

 

I decided to build basebuild 12 which is located next to the bench and will utilise cassette storage on the top deck and possibly a wharf for the bottom deck or other hidden storage could work but that's for the future

 

I built baseboard 14/ 15 top deck with a gap in the support frame so I can run a spur under a bridge here. All level first time fit which was a plus. 

 

I had to rebuild baseboard 13 top deck with some extra supporting frame as it wasn't level - it is now!

 

I bought a few more drawers from IKEA to increase storage - I can highly recommend using a cheap utility tray and got one that fits the whole tray - great for storing tools.

 

The two photos:

 

The one with the existing scenic layout (baseboard 1) butted up against baseboard 15 with 14 on the left. Top deck built last night installed but not secured yet. Baseboard 13 in foreground sitting ontop of a kitchen unit

 

The one with the gap is taken from baseboard 13 looking across to baseboard 11, with baseboard 12 on the right and baseboard 10 on the left. All sitting on kitchen units with some of the new drawers installed on the right the idea being to empty the shelves for ease of access for wiring and maintenance. 2nd bridge for lower deck is wider an annoyingly straddles baseboards 11 and 10 on one side. Not yet finished the bridge support on the other side between the kitchen unit and the baseboards
