I eventually got it all cleared and gradually tested things. The only failure was my faithfull Maplin frequency counter that worked for a few mins then wouuld not respond to the selection buttons.
Note there is an extraction fan under the shelf overhang to take out fumes should I solder under the overhang.
Cross connected everything in Dr Who fasion with a lissajous for the final photo.
The challenge now is to keep it tidy and useable.

Your last statement about tidy and useable was one challenge I was never able to master.
That trait seems to be universal in a hobby of this type.
