    Finally: My wrenching space!

    No the workbenches are actually made from the inventor of the idea: www.item24.de :) So finally there's an update! We built a wall that separates our space from the paint booth and of course it was painted as well. Also we got ourselves a lift :rocker: We currently are doing some maintenance...

    Finally: My wrenching space!

    This is the actual spot where the work will get done,so it's inside the hall. It used to be an old factory, you can see some steel plates in the floor where some big machines used to stand on.
