The Menzshed… the boys have been busy and a bracing plywood skirt has been constructed around the base of the building to brace the piles.  Painting and carpeting inside the old Sunday School room has been completed, and a sink and zip installed so they can have a cuppa.  One of these rooms will be set up as an electronics room.  The little garden shed has been put on a foundation and will be used as a paint store.

In the next few weeks work benches will be constructed in the woodwork workshop, and the ramp for disabled access will be made.  Our projected opening date is currently early September.
