Dave Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Model Rail Baseboards are on the move! I have moved the workshop to an industrial unit in Valleymount in Wicklow. The business continues to grow and with over 1500 sq ft I will have room for a showroom and I plan to have a number of layouts on display for customers to try. Quote
The Derry Road Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 dave good luck with the new premises, onwards and upwards.:cheers:TDR Quote
burnthebox Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Congratulations on your move Dave, best of luck Paul Quote
Garfield Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 That's a nice amount of space you have there, Dave! Best of luck with the move. Quote
murrayec Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Nice one Dave, can wait to see it Eoin Quote
Glenderg Posted October 21, 2016 Posted October 21, 2016 Best of luck! A few sheets of xtratherm on that roof, wooly coat, maybe fix the door, be grand Quote
irishthump Posted October 21, 2016 Posted October 21, 2016 Wonderful news, Dave! Personally, I don't think I could resist the temptation to just use the spce for a huge layout... Quote
Dave Posted October 21, 2016 Author Posted October 21, 2016 Thanks lads, it's a great space alright. There is a big room at the back which will become the layout building area, it means I will be able to have a number of layouts on the go at once. It also has 2 large rooms upstairs, the plan will be a showroom with 4 or 5 layouts fully finished in N gauge and OO gauge, customers can then try them all and take one away with them. The long term plan will be to open a fully stocked shop. Onwards and upwards! Quote
