Please accept my apologies john , only just seen this . Been reading through and youre making a superb job of this , its going to look amazing . I suspect the joiner in you is enjoying all the wood butchery more than the plastic! Im a little worried about the pics of the bench though , i dont recall there being a tornado in the Stamford area , thats got to be the only explanation for the bench being swept clean ! Keep up the excellent work , cheers tony

No problem in just arriving Tony. Well you're 100% right in your suspicion about preferring wood to plastic after wood it has to be Foam Board. !
Although we do get some strong winds this end of the town I can assure you that there was no tornado in the cave, they did however fly over us for some time !

ah another likely member of the Untidy Bench Club then Richard. Unlike the TBC we don't charge membership, mainly because we would probably loose it !

John, I'm down to a 5" by 5" free space to work from and surrounded with clutter.

Much progress made, didn't look that much but all very fiddly.
Managed to glue some .4 mm wire to some binoculars, take about needing 3 hands. I tried Tim's suggestion about breathing out onto the parts to assist gluing, happy to say it workes , and with out me sticking the lot to my lip !
Only one photo , ( No cheering at the back please )..


Thanks for following, comments and abuse more than welcome.
