So after far too long I have finally ahve a place of my own to get back into modeling. Its been so long I am not even sure if any of the paints/glues or other liquids are even still usable.

So basically I manage an apartment complex and there are 3 outside storage units. 1 has been converted into the Maintenance work area, the 2nd a appliance storage space and the third, will now be so I can build again.

Its not pretty but it will do:

In the individual storage spaces I have all my personal belongings. Camping equipment, Annual holiday decorations etc.. But I will be utilizing the space directly behind the desk to keep the paint and other stuff that does not need to stay on the desk unless its being used.

Good news is I got space to store the bike and other tools also so now its out of the apartment

As you can see there is plenty of space. Its a bit of a mess right now but I will eventually get it all cleaned up and clutter free.

Its kind fo fun setting all this up too because I am seeing things I have not seen in like 3-5 years!

Anyways, I will update this as I clean it up and make it nice! Just happy I have the space now.

looks really nice. You can always add more lighting, shelving, etc later. If you threw out the bike to the curb for more room im on the way to dig through your trash! Now get building.

No way, that bike is more important to me than my current car! Im rehabbing from an injury right now which explains the front brake, but I am supposed to ride from SF to LA next year!

You got heat, wait, that ain't Canada.....Looks great.

It does get chilly at night but obviously nothing at all like Canada. Funny thing is the room is attached to the laundry room so its always warm.

Heat! Might get really hot in the summer A/C. Good for you, congrats!

Yes Heat will be my issue. I have a very powerfull fan, but I am worried about dust. I will come up with something!

Si it has DEFF been really hot in the storage room. I think I found the main source of heat tho. Its the attic access hole on the ceiling. The hot air flows in like a heater. So when I cover it up like it should have been already that should reduce A LOT of the heat coming in.

Also, I had to rearrange some things because I bought this!
