Show Time - Part 2

Continuing with our list of stand preparation work this photo shows the added bracing to stop wobble.  Wanted to keep the assembly as minimal as possible so one brace added to each end and two to the front held with M6 bolts screwed to the frame. For transportation we remove the top bolt and swivel the brace parallel to the uprights.

The table top is also shown, made from 6 off 3' x 1' melamine shelves that we had stored for the past 20 years or so! One of these has a hole cutout for the railway umbilical power/control cable. The railway layout is simply placed on top of the table top.

The kitchen cabinet underneath is not part of the kit. The odd shaped mdf panel up against the wall is the cut-off from the model railway landscape base.
