Some time ago, one of our members (Pop540) wrote a highly detailed account of the full renovation of their Eriba which was posted in the Blog section (See here) You will need to scroll down to 22 February 2014.
I've just had a look and am sad to see that the excellent photographs that originally accompanied the article were removed when Photobucket stopped accepting free third-party hosting. However, without the pictures, the write-up should still provide you with lots of ideas and inspiration.
Best of luck and welcome to Eribafolk.
Please keep us updated on your progress.
