Been having a tidy up and dusting all the shelves and work surfaces over the last few days, finally got the workbench de-cluttered so i can now actually work on it ....

Pretty cool to see the work areas of others. Only recently I reclaimed my shop area above my garage and started building model cars.  Its not near as neat and clean as others but it works for me.

As long as it works for you, that's all that counts.

I'll play.  I have posted these before.  I am proud of this room because I did all of the work myself.  This was a bare, concrete floor, block wall corner of my basement where I first started back in the hobby.  I would hang a blanket from the floor joists just to try to keep some heat in my hobby area.  Heat in and dryer lint out....lol  I made it a hobby room / Earnhardt shrine. :D  I have added a few more kits since these pictures were taken.  It is my escape area and I love to spend time down there.

Hey Guys, some of these work areas look staged:lol: Too clean, and organized!! Mines a little different, because I collect and Mod 1/18 diecast. I recently moved, so I'm still trying to find a place for everything. My workbench is a 6ft folding table, and I need to build a Spray booth one of these days. Some really nice looking work rooms, wish I had more space, like some of you have.

Cheers,

Lance

You guys have some great spaces! 

I Just updated my area, been working on it quite some time, I also have a separate semi permanent paint room built in another area of the basement.

Once we get somewhere I have enough room, this is almost the exact mental image I have for my area. I love the shop feel of this. This is an awesome area.

My spare bedroom is where I have my work bench and store my kits. Where I paint is off site in a small "studio" that I rent.

Nice! if it wasn't expensive enough, you rent a place for painting.;)

Mine looks like this. A small room I share with the freezer, some camping stuff and a couple of storage chests.

Some of the stash is in the furnace room and some is on and on top of the bookcases.

Wow, Andy! I'm jealous:o This is an Ideal setup, and I think, every builders dream. Awesome bench space, I love it!

Somebody like those 32 Ford kits . : )

I like a lot of these areas!  I'd feel real comfortable being there.

I'm impressed too with the number of kits you guys have stashed!  Man, I have 3 kits that have been bashed because of other builds, and an Anglia Gasser that'll be built some day.

Hi, Michael, ive learned that if you don't buy the kits when they come out, they get discontinued, can be hard to find, or unless you're lucky, will cost you ALOT more than they use to. But that could just be the kinds I like to build though too I guess. if your into Camaros, Mustangs, Impalas, or 57 Chevys, you will NEVER have a problem finding them cheap.:lol:
