Norgrove starts to take shape
Over the summer we
started the construction of our new Norgrove layout by
making a full sized mock up of the
layout, out of otherwise scrap MDF, to finalize the
design of the baseboards. This process has proved
beneficial in evolving the design.
Just before the
November 2020 lockdown we started the construction
of the actual baseboards using the mock up ones as
temples.
| Progress by December 2020 - We had built the permanent baseboard frames and legs. The next stage is to make the permanent tops (pictures below show the temporary ones made of MDF and not plywood taken from the temporary boards) | |
