As you can see the hutch has now gone from the office table. The office table was cleared of the printer, the laptop, the speakers, add on drives, PC monitor and phone.
A heap of junk as well as the keyboard and mouse were cleared as well.
We went to lift the hutch from the office table and quickly found it would be too heavy for us. So we lowered it to the floor by slowly and carefully tipping it. It finished up top down on the floor.
Each section was then carried outside and down the side way where it will await stacking onto a trailer and off to the tip!
I am not looking forward to dismantling the table. At almost 70 years of age I have decided this type of work is a bit difficult for both of us to do all on one day and in a rush. We move slowly, doing a new stage each day.
The bookcase will go together tomorrow.
From the top photo, the fridge will come across to beside the window, the new table which is somewhat smaller than the current table both in width and depth will go along the side wall under where the map is. The new 800cm wide bookcase will go beside the fridge. The filing cabinet will roughly fit between where the current PC monitor is and the side wall (with the map).
According to my measurements this should leave the current wall phone and power points exposed and easy to get to.
My next step today is to Bunnings to purchase 2 x 4point power boards, each with an individual switches. Bunnings have them at two sets for $20. The individual switches give you great control over what you turn on and off.
I have become a bit of a stickler for turning my PC etc off at the wall overnight.
I enjoyed the sport on TV yesterday, the cricket was great to watch. I did the usual 12.5k bike ride this morning and I was in the pool (27.4º water temp)by 8am. By 9:30 am the hutch had gone and the PC was reconnected and back and running!
30º or so again today. It was sweltering work doing the hutch this morning. A change of clothes followed along with a long cool glass of water!
