Re: New Traveller Restoration Undertaken
I upgraded the work area a bit,
I concreted all the floors then added rubber connecting mats ,Lined the walls with 5/8 ply after insulating, Added lots more fitted lights and socket outlets, And finally mounted a big vice on the work bench.

Re: New Traveller Restoration Undertaken
Yes Pete,
It was an epic journey I had to make to complete this project .
I needed this space to do justice to next phase to reassemble .
I completely filled the parts area with spares , and more than doubled my work area .
