RMweb Gold gwrrob Posted August 14, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 14, 2017 Thanks, it's the base for a window seat made for the folk's house. Quite enjoyable doing other stuff for time to time. Brownie points are always useful for future use. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium 2ManySpams Posted August 14, 2017 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted August 14, 2017 Brownie points are always useful for future use. Cashed in already Rob, having a little taken off the length of some new work trousers. Fair exchange. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium wagonbasher Posted August 14, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 14, 2017 Brownie points are always useful for future use. Be careful... Brownie points have a surprisingly short shelf life.. Use them or loose them! Andy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium 2ManySpams Posted August 14, 2017 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted August 14, 2017 Does it fold down in rapid quick time? Andy Nope. The brief was a solid lump of a seat to be screwed to the wall. No folding what so ever. Complete opposite of a typical show layout. Be careful... Brownie points have a surprisingly short shelf life.. Use them or loose them! Andy Best cashed in straight away IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

N15class Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 By the way, the 'workbench' it's sitting on is the pile of boxes containing the cheapo Wickes kitchen base units for the train room. Plan of action is... 1. Get shot of the window seat. 2. Finish off the three turnouts on Pencarrow that bridge the board joints. This will enable the boards to be split... 3. With the boards split they can be moved, the old Ikea trestles removed and the new taller support system made (more on this at a later point). 4. Install layout on the taller support system. 5. Make kitchen units, install under the layout. 6. Move train junk into kitchen units - tidy. Kitchen units and layout supports will all be mounted on heavy duty wheeled castors. Should let me move things around if needed on my own. So that's tomorrow sorted, Thursdays paint the O2 day, Friday is always beer day.... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to get away from these damn puffer trains sometimes ! Chip Offtheblok That's a very nice price of work there. Mine will be covered in material and cushions (not by me) so needed to be functional rather than beautiful. Are you sure it's big enough though? Kids toys are huge these days, and they have so many.
