WORK BENCH SATURDAYS!!

Recommended Posts

Formula sounds interesting,looking forward to it :D

It's too hot in Oklahoma to do anything outside this weekend. I'm putting the finishing touches on the 1969 Barracuda notchback coupe and I'm stripping the paint from an MPC 1975 Pontiac Firebird Formula. I'll probably resume work on the 1967 Camaro annual once the Barracuda is off the bench.

This is the first I seen this thread, but it looks interesting. Even though this doesn't show what's on the bench right at this moment, here's my little slice of heaven.

I have the moose bar for this truck on the bench right now modifying the hood hinges so the moose bumper and hood will tilt as one unit.

Well since this thread gets brought up and a lot of people seem to want work bench stuff I think I will help this one get going again. here is my bench on sat 7/31/2010. I have a Hot Wheel Chevelle wagon and Ecto1A as the main projects. I spent most of today ( model time wise ) on more bmf on the Caddy. Also I spend EVERY saturday morning re-organising and cleaning up my bench before I do any work on a car. DSC04406.jpg

Nice setup, Brian! Are my eyes playing tricks on me, or is that a U.S. Mail truck with custom wheels!?!? I like your instruction stand, I've been looking for something like that for my desk. Where did you find yours?

Hey bud yeah it's a USPS LLV ( Long Life Vehicle) Thats what my postman said they are colled. It's made by Jada. I'd love to make a 1:24 one some day lol. Also the Instruction holder is a small art easil from a kids water paint set. It had the easil, a thick cardboard backing, (throw away the numbered picture to paint) and whalla for like $4 :) It just sits on top of a wicker shelf holding my misc instructions and decals.

Here is my workbench this weekend. Last weekend I went camping so it was empty just ready to take stuff to work. Now Ecto is apart with a clear on it. Hopefully I'll get to it more today (sunday). You can see some misc projects like my Hot Wheel I have to finish. A camper idea not posted yet at all. My old 75 Road Runner etc. Enjoy and have a great weekend everyone. DSC04668.jpgDSC04669.jpg

I don't really know if this will work.

I'm trying to post pictures of my workbench.

Works fine on my end, that's a lindberg 34' Ford isn't it ? I've got one on my bench right now. That wood bed looks pretty good on it !!! :blink:
