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!

Looks like you will have a nice area.

I would not know what to do with that much room....nice.  welcome.

Welcome aboard and good luck with your shop!

Thanks for the comments guys, I'm looking forward to it!

Hey, done yet???? LOL. Awesome space though. I think I have about a sixth of that, not even.

[slusher]

Nice big work area. You will have plenty of space...

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!

Hi Wes, don't forget space for a heater.

[Crazy Ed]

   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.

Looks like a good place to start.

Hey Michael, definitely have a spot in mind for a heater....can't handle the cold!! 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.

Good luck! I know this will take some time to get everything set up where you want it.

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.

Can't wait to see the finished pics!!!

It looks like you will have a nice workspace once it's finished.

Thanks guys, I appreciate all the comments. I'll be sure to get some pics up when I'm finished. I was able to finish all the framing yesterday. It's moving along.
