I don't have a spare fridge, but yea, if I had one that's where it would go :headbang:

It all came from my parents house, they had a new kitchen put in about 6-9 months ago. They gave it to me if I removed it before the fitters came for the new one. I had it ripped out in about 3hrs. Then they were extra kind in letting me store it in their garage attic (completely filled it!!)

This kitchen workshop must be 20+ years old, I remember my older brother fitting it when we were all still living at home, I could've still been at school at the time (can't remember) :scratch: But there's nothing wrong with it, all solid oak doors and drawer fronts, only one drawer needed a couple of screws to patch it up. :thumbup:

Another step forwards...

Been busy putting in some electrical outlet sockets, and some trunking between them, and then some electric string shoved into said trunking and some sockets wired up.

I also got some of the brown stuff and fashioned it into a frame. This will then get some kitchen worktop (Currently buried under a veritable mountain of crap essential stuff, awaiting release when said mountain gets transferred into new workshop cupboards)

Pics...

Sockets down one side,

New frame/bench (there will be doors put on the front to keep out the majority of swarf),

Stay tuned for more of the same (but slightly different)

There's not been too much to show, but I have been beavering away plumbing in a ring mains, a whole bunch of double sockets and then installing some electric rope to feed the cooker and hob.

I also freed up 2/3rds of the worktop needed for the lathe and mill bench (the other 1/3rd is buried under boxes of workshop equipment) and attached it to the bench.

Today I installed some doors on the Lathe/Mill bench, I need to make some handles, maybe I'll pop round to my dad's and turn some on my woodturning lathe.

Here's a pic of the Mill/lathe bench.

After hanging the doors (one still to go, but have not got a piece of tree big enough for the hole) I made a start on fitting a 5-lever deadlock to the door, got the lock fitted, now just need to fit the keeper in the frame and get a couple of handles.

Thanks for watching,

Tim
