Stingray wes Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Love looking at everyone's work here! My work for the last couple of weeks has been building a workshop in my garage so I can get back into this hobby that I've been out of for about 20 years. Wish me me luck on a quick finish so I can get something going on the workbench! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrKerry Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Hey, done yet???? LOL. Awesome space though. I think I have about a sixth of that, not even. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slusher Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Nice big work area. You will have plenty of space... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stingray wes Posted August 16, 2015 Author Share Posted August 16, 2015 It's a 19' x 10' but not all of it will be for model building. Prob 10' x 10' of it will be model area with the remaining space being a general work area with 1:1 tool boxes, bolt and nut storage hand tools etc....you get the picture. Laid that garage floor paint down yesterday......makes a world of difference. Hope to finish framing today.Thanks for all the comments....seems like a great group of people on here!

Crazy Ed Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Really nice space you've got there. Hope you've got a Vent for your Paint Booth in the plans and a return Fresh Air for the Shop and You. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be ok with me if I never needed another heater!!Ed - thanks for the reminder on the fresh air intake..I have the vent under control but havent put a lot of thought into the circulation of fresh air.Thanks for the comments guys.

You're doing the same thing I did 3 1/2 years ago in my basement. After trying to build in an open basement, I gave up and framed in a shop. Mine is 12 x 20. You'll be so glad when you're done.
