Damn .. Those stairs look like they can carry 10 tons of weight!!

Look at the bright side, the lair can double as a bomb bunker when the zombie Armageddon begins!  ;)

Is it just me or is the height indeed very low? Seeying at the picture I have the impression you need to duck before you can enter v3?

Hell yeah!  8)

Nope, it's not high. You'll have to 'bend forward' a little bit to walk around the V2/V3.
In short, it would be too complicate/too much money but also too much additional 'workload' to fix that (in very short : it's because of the huge building lands levels difference) .

Ohyes, the "Belgische Ardennen" :-)

Anyhow, looking forward to see you starting assembling the big G3 ! You close to it now. ;)

Ok guys, the V3 is not a single room anymore  :)

Here's the V2/V3 common wall, with the windows to the 'previously outside'  8)  :arrow:



...jigsaw time!



Hell yeah!



...and here we are!



...but as you can see, still a lot of work to finish that area!

Some dust and sawdust make the cabs more vintage. ;D
Nice work Bruno, walking on stairs between 2 gamerooms will be a unique experience. ;)

No problem Barry, it's just some dust removable in no time, no cabinet were harmed during the work!

Hell yeah, I was expecting to walk through that wall since many years... it's now a reality!

Now, check out the hard work done in order to bring .... water... inside the V3!



The water pipe is not in that red tube, but just to show you the existing concrete we have to break...



... in order to 'by pass' the existing broken pipe between my house and the V2...and replace all that broken stuff by something new...



Done! The water is coming via this flexible tube. But this was the easiest part...(to continue l8ter)  8)
