I intend to install lighting in the mess hut which means it must be furnished....
Being lazy I searched around the t'interweb for 1:43 scale furniture - could I find any..... no. So I trawled around for 1:48 scale furninture and bingo...
I found these from a UK supplier who makes dolls house furniture in 1:12, 1:24 and low and behold 1:48.
So I purchased these...

They are laser cut ply and card kits. I started with the kitchen sink and table. Being small and rather delicate they take some time and unlike Ikea there are no screws left over
