Getting Board(ed)

With the basic reception framework up, and particularly the upper floor work in place, we now have a ceiling downstairs to start getting the lighting circuits into.




While we're at it, we may as well make it look nice as well, so we've decided to go for a "floating" ceiling in the reception, which will be back lit all the way around.

In the meantime, the double frames for carrying the inner and outer reception plasterboard surfaces can be assembled prior to fitting, the third sound proofing skin is sandwiched between these frames as they're installed into the structural steel shell.





The corner wall will have a viewing window, as will the wall adjoining the main workshop area, we think it's important that should anyone wish to, they can stay on the premises in relative comfort, while still being able to observe any works being carried out on their car.





The impracticality and potential safety/insurance risks involved in allowing open access to the workshop have therefore been adequately catered for.

Likewise, any customer having tuning or diagnostic work carried out on our brand new Dyno Dynamics 4WD rolling road, will be able to view any work on a dedicated monitor in the comfort of our fully serviced reception area.

Looks like Kev Baldry (Construction Project Manager) just gave somebody the thumbs up on their first piece of combined frame building and dry walling". Well done Mark, only a couple of dozen or so left to do.
