it's amazing how complex and authentic it is all beginning to look at this point now that everything on the internals are coming together.
Keep on with the great updates, most enjoyable to see.
I guess you are getting into your winter/modeling season right now so we will have lots to look forward to.
Thanks for sharing with us.

Saw dust bin, roof will be added later. For reasons unknown the saw dust I have placed in the bin is turning black used foam per instructions to build a base then added the saw dust fixed with white wood glue, when this is dried will try and fix the problem by adding another fin layer of dust and fix it with AK gravel and sand fixer.

I always loved that tool cart and you are doing a great job on your version of it.
Been a little slow in posting to this forum and my modelling time has been restricted due to sickness, garage ceiling collapsing with me having to fight with my insurance to get fixed, they did finally come to the party, but it was a tough fight. Also have our daughter and grandkids moving back home with us since they cannot afford the rent, rental properties in Australia are going up beyond believe. Currently working on to install lights purchased led chandeliers and a distribution panel on ebay from wehonest will install the distribution panel in the roof above the office which I will hide by making tarps.
Despite all of the other things going on you have been making some great progress.
Wonderful work and progress so far, I am enjoying following your progress every step of the way.
Thanks for sharing your update with us all.

Progress on my sawmill. Lights installed, used a light distribution unite purchased on eBay from wehonest and installed it above the office, made tarps to hide it. Corrugated roofing added above boiler house, maintenance shed and saw dust bin. Brett supplies ribbed iron for the boiler house, but I stuffed cutting it up, got width and length around the wrong way, however on reflection in Australia it appears from research we mainly used corrugated iron so used that instead..
Update on my build, roof now installed, and lights tested. Smokestacks and landscaping still to be done. In regard to the earlier comment above, yes I have seen Roberts excellent build of the sawmill and hopefully when I do the landscaping I will be able to achieve some were near to his standard.
