Moving shop again (again)...
AdeV:
Hi Ian,
Thanks - same to you :beer:
As the insulation is going to be a while before it's delivered, and due to impatience on my part, I've decided to crack on with cladding the walls, and I'll figure out the insulation later...
Anyway, a few hours work tonight and it's starting to look a little more like a room and less like a skeleton:
Hmm, maybe not in all directions though...
I'm running out of plasterboard again, so another pain-inducing trip to Wickes is in the offing... well, unless I can persuade them to deliver :wack:
Meanwhile... the Wall of Power is up :lol:
I'll replace one of those double sockets with network points... but that'll still leave 24 power outlets, should be enough to cope with my electronics bench. There's a few more to go on the other wall too... Went with white ones because they were literally 1/4 the price of the fancy ones; but I've got some chrome ones as well, they'll be hooked up to an uninterruptable power supply, so the computers (and whatever's plugged into them) will stay running even if there's a power cut.
Back at it tomorrow :doh:
AdeV:
Starting to look a bit more like a room now :beer: Another couple of plasterboards will see the interior walls done, then there's just the outside front wall to cover. That will have to wait until Spring/Summer for various reasons.
The work benches are up on some temporary trestles, I wanted an idea of where to bring the water supply in for the coffee machine (got to get the basics right! :lol:)
The pub games end of the room :) Dartboard will go on the left-hand side of the short wall... beer tap on the right hand side...
Today I will finish the internal walls & start on the electrics, then everything grinds to a halt for months on end as I'll be spending most of my time in China for the next few months.

Coming along very nicely Ade :thumbup:
Will you be having a grand opening? ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,with bait and beer :)
Rob.
howsitwork?:
as I'll be spending most of my time in China for a few months" - bloody long way to go for a take away ? :lol: :lol: Don't they deliver down your way?
Looks really nice and very comfy. Where does the biccy barrel live though? :scratch:
Happy New Year
Ian

Hi Rob,
You know what, that's not a bad idea.... what with one thing and another, the "grand opening" is likely to be sometime around Summer, we should have some homebrew beer ready by then (minimum estimated strength: 8%), and the lack of insulation will mean it's not unpleasantly cold :thumbup: Now.... if I combine the grand opening with learning to do some casting, that'd give you a bit of an excuse to show up wouldn't it? No need to book a hotel, we can throw a mattress on the pool table :lol: :lol:
