Well the wife has finally had it
After over 2 1/2 year of my workbench being in the kitchen

next to all my good party supplies
I have been forced to relocate to the basement

So the extra 10 or 15 minuets during the day that I use to get while cooking or whatever won't be spent modeling
But on the other side of things my bench is now olny 6 feet away from my gym so between set instead of folding wash I can get some plastic done

My hobby dump,... um, I mean cave. I'm very fortunate to have an entire room dedicated to hobby "stuff", and this is part of that (still unfinished), room.

Hi people!

@James: Thank you! I have more than 70 finnished models. This display case has 1,5 x 2,0 meters and is full...

@Miniflea: Man, you have a window!

@Kevin: Just one word: Fantastic.

Cheers!

All right I have to know, how to you guys keep it all so clean. My workbench is an absolute mess. Mind you, I know where everything is and what kits all the miscellaneous parts go to, but it is a total mess to the untrained eye.





I'm a little embarrassed to even share these after seeing those other nicely organized, clean workbenches.

It may be a mess, but its my mess and I am happy when in here. Enjoy and don't be jealous.

My area is only clean in the photo above because I had just finished cleaning it up for the photo. It's normally a complete hog sty.

Cheers!

Alright, the work benches are nice. But the workbenches and RIFLES have made my day. My two favorite things together. It's almost heaven!

There isn't a rifle, but...



The Beretta is a replica.

Thanks Jeff. At roughly 126 square feet, it's still too small! If I ever move out of here, I'll make sure I have at least twice as much space.

Allright, even if I tried to clean up my workbench for the photo it still wouldn't look like those nice and taken care of workbenches. I have tried several times to clean mine up but it always ends up looking like it does in my images so I just give up. I am still able to get my projects finished and am happy with the results so let it be, just let it be!
