Nearly a full team today with 4 of us. Ian painted some newly machined bits that needed primer before we assemble the axleboxes. The put a coat of undercoat on the roof so that we can mark out for the seats/handrails/floor latts etc. This certainly made a difference and it looked surprisingly smooth. Jim brought the two door screens and spent the day making sure that they fit. These were missing aprts and have been made from old tram doors and llok good. Now that they have been trial fitted the next job is to varnish them. I spent the morning marking the stair tread supports then started shaping them. Stephen arrived at lunchtime and we both worked on the stairs drilling pilot holes and shaping supports ready for assembly. Nothing spectacular but all in all in it was good steady progress.
