EKFM Radio Studio:Update No. 1

It has been a few months since the last update of progress on the studio. The exterior is basically all done - only a few minor finishes to complete still. The interior is well on its way, and radio broadcast could begin in as little as a few weeks!

the doors and windows are installed! also, 
a fresh coat of white paint on the vault!
