A few steps forward today.

1 - Couldn't find any decent timber or solid wood worktops on Gumtree but found a bargain at Homebase £49 for a 2200mm x 600mm x 26mm wood worktop. That is now fitted to the legs. Will need a third central leg but for now supported by my portable workbench.

2 - Insulated some more of the garage which won't make much difference until the rest is done, but easier before everything gets in the way.

3 - Stated cutting out the base plate. Impressed with the Dremmel. I started with a hacksaw but it was slow and would seen become obstructed due to length of cut, switched to the angle grinder disk on the Dremmel and quite impressed. Ran out of light (another topic for improving the garage more lights).

Pictures tomorrow
