Running the mains and the fibre optic into the Shed.

Due to a slight oversight, as the conduits were installed some years prior to the shed actually being built we had a small problem as the conduits were only 32 mm. And running 16mm2 three phase from the house to the shed presented and issue as that cable is not allows in 32 mm conduit as per the good book.

So, to overcome this it involved splitting the orange circular and running the three phases, neutral and earth across two 32 mm conduits and running in a fibre optic for connectivity as data cabling cannot be mixed with power circuits, but fibre can!

The orange circular 16 mm2 exits the house and is split across the two conduits to the shed with the fibre optic as well.

The inside of the shed where the switchboard will end up eventually. Spoiler alert, as I am so far behind here it is already completed! Hahaha.

Okay, sealing the floor should be next...

Hermetically Sealing the Shed.

Well, living in the Pilbara with the humidity and cyclonic rain, sometimes, I had always intended to completely seal the shed to eliminate drafts, vermin, liquid sunshine and of course those pesky little 'dust' particles that have a habit of getting in everywhere up here.

So, to hermetically seal the shed, it was several rolls of Gorilla tape to 'join' all the ThermalBreak insulation, and then Sikaflex to seal the slab to the ThermalBreak all around the bottom of the shed as per the below image of the northeast corner.

Next up, sealing the concrete floor...

New arrivals.

A couple of new arrivals from Trainbuilder. The AF and AX all brass car transport waggons. History and these classes of waggons can be found here: AA / AF - Motor Car Body Transport (pjv101.net) and here AX / VMAX - Motor Car Transport (pjv101.net).

A lot of protype detail can also be found here: AX Automobile Transport (victorianrailways.net). I'll upload some images of them soon...
