Re: AFN no. 400 - what have I done?!

I can’t claim credit. I’m just project managing it & throwing the money about (through gritted teeth)!

I’ll be building it up though & completing a puzzle that was last together as one entity before I was born in 1982!

Re: AFN no. 400 - what have I done?!

Thank you!

They’re doing a great job. I’ll get more pics up over the next few days. Loads of handmade panels along with the Simonsen ones of course. I’m really happy with how it’s coming on, shame about the cost but hey ho!

I don’t mind sacrificing a bit of HP for longevity.

Might richen it up a little which isn’t always a bad thing.

That’s the one Neil.

Probably just put some filter socks on them.

More pics to follow. It’s really tedious having to paste across tabs on an iPhone!
