Rentech 2 - Progress

[Day]

Mike started his big Rentech move today.

Today we moved out of the old unit and into the new unit round the corner.

It's much larger so Mike can now get two ramps on the go which should allow him to work twice as fast hopefully :approve:

A lick of paint is required on the walls but that is tomorrows job along with painting some of the floor.

More pictures to follow tomorrow (hopefully on a proper camera)

As you can see there's loads to do including building an office somewhere not to mention assembling that bloody ramp

So if you are in the Portsmouth area and have a spare few hours we'll be at unit 12

After more work yesterday down at Rentech, the new unit is almost ready to go. Just a few things left to tidy up and sort out, and some second coats of paint.

Looking very good now, a big transformation from the photos taken last week.

Good luck next week Mike!

 

[Mike@Rentech]

Thanks Nik, good pics.

 

[Josh]

[Blue4Ever]

Looking superb. Definately need a NW branch! lol

 

[trailerparktrev]

Your office space, keeps getting smaller!! Did you get the sofa to fit in there?!?!?!?!

Best of luck Mike. Oh and do you service Fiats?? My brother in law's punto is due one in the next month or so.

 

[Mike@Rentech]

Any make or model just need to let me know if gen or non gen parts needed.
The sofa is not in there by the way.

I hope he's authorised. Shame you live so far away, you should relocate to Birmingham so you're more central to us angles.
