A change is as good as a holiday.(Housekeeping)

There are some times, where you look at your current situation and say this isn't good enough, then there are some times when one needs a gentle shove in the right direction. The man cave/study is a prime example, two kids, five and under, together with a 'study' that has the OH&S of a Dickensian factory, that will put the domestic authorities offside, so far that in the fact that it may offend inlaws and other visitors, now requires attention.

Victoria Street, started off as a test track built on one of those wall suspended Ikea shelves. It evolved, then extended, plus adapted, and slowly converted to DCC. The biggest issue was the storage of reference/modelling material, especially for 'works in progress'.

 
The 'study' on a good day, (yeah right!)
 
 
So when an article appeared in, Australian Model Railway Magazine/ blogspot Dec 13 about utilising flat pack self assemble storage.  A eureka moment! Therefore, after a little of bit of show and tell later with the bride, the seed had been planted for a study refit.
 
 
  A work in progress.
(note the hi vis and the beer, it's all safety first!)


The blank canvas.........
more to come.

Stay tuned, from under some wires?
 
Regards Glenn.
