A little more timber cut, vinyl stuck and even more LEDs for the rear side panels, still awaiting downlighters and some grey vinyl to arrive, but at least I can plan my next bit of the interior.

A few different samples

my eyesight isn't what it used to be, so I wasn't too impressed with my soldering, but at least the LED strips are now joined together and working

I've had the all the LEDs working today for a test run, only for one of the remote drivers to go up in smoke!!! Best to go now before its all up.
Im trying to think of a way of fitting the roof panels without having any screws showing and still having it serviceable for any failures, so far its industrial dual lock, similar to velcro! I've looked at dozens of clips and studs, but nothing I can fix two timbers like a pop stud
