        I can hear the balalaika. Great stuff. When you close up the front the stray light from outside will be cut down and your lighting will sow more. What voltage are you using for the leds?

                The lighting adds a bit of atmosphere. Great job.

                  Checked out your 'foil' work for the roof, and I want to ask if you fancy coming and doing my loft insulation next..?

                    Thanks John. The lady at the lighting company said if only having them on for a short time 3 v normal batteries and not coin type because of the flashing diodes would be ok.

                    Paul thank you, indeed there was no flue pipe , until to day!!!! I had to get the stove to sit on the base so the glue would take. The best way seemed to use the flue pipe to hold down the stove while the ca stook. Once that was done I had to repaint the pipe as constant pressure had removed even the primer. Hopefully it will be on tomorrow. More about that further down.

                    Thanks Gary. I'd seen a post from John Ballard saying it would help to reflect light on another thread, so decided I would do it in case.

                    Today saw the continuing of fitting the lights and the upper section for the Sculptamold. Of course in all this turning on its side and back 2 figures decided to try to escape, luckily they gave up and are now awaiting refixing later.

                    Flue pipe, before it was removed to repaint, it actually came adrift from the stove when I was repositioning the box. Primed again and will be fitted tomorrow.

                    These are the bunker light cables with the exit hole cut into the side. The side section is to allow a gap for the cables , both these and the flashing lights that are now fixed into the top will be under here.

                    The above is now covered , just waiting for a spot of glue to dry that ids keepimng the light in place. The dioes are so small they easily fall out of a the smallest hole.

                    More tomorrow Bunker Fans, thanks for looking in and all the support.

                      That really is coming together very nicely indeed. The lighting has worked a treat.

                      Very well done.

                          Pretty unconventional loft insulation John, but I guess it'll do!
                          Nice flue by the way.

                            Thanks Si, didn't look like the cat with the cream earlier, stuck my hand to the side of the box !:smiling3::smiling3: after managing to get CA on the side of my hand. Next thing I knew I was part of the display !

                            Thanks Pete, that damned flue has caused more problems than the whole build, see above ! Well at least the soil was free :smiling3:
                            Only popped in check that Grammarly I tried has gone, absolutely a waste of time. So if anyone has seen it or been thinking about it take my advice and don't bother. Glad I only tried the free version.

                              Your sales lady probably knows more than me but I would put the flashing lights on a separate circuit and power the rest with more like 6v. Anyway it's looking real good.

                                Thanks , I had no idea what power to use , so relied upon her experience. Hopefully it will be ok. If it isn't I could always have another separate supply for them John. Could I increase everything to 6 volt ?
