Dave Van Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 My model room has needed a complete reset for a while....I am in the final stages of that now. So maybe now I can get more work turned out....not this good in ten years!!!! .Thanks
Bondo Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Looks good! I desperately need to do the same but I know that as soon as I do,I won't be able to find anything....
JTalmage Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 I swept the debris off of mine from doing a little scratchbuilding and sanding... but it will need a good cleaning soon. May I ask why your storage drawers are labeled by color?
Dave Van Posted February 11, 2016 Author Posted February 11, 2016 Color is random......I just like the contrast of a day-glo color and black Sharpie. I have a touch of color blindness so sharp contrast is a good thing!!! Thx

ThxI meant what does the color mean written on the tag? but after I wrote that I got real close to the screen and realized it was your paint LOL
Ramfins59 Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 I just did pretty much the same thing down in my basement model area Dave. Swept the floors, dusted off the workbench, swiffered away all the cobwebs and reorganized all my paints and tools. Now I have to knuckle down and get building again. Between the holidays, family visits, gift wrapping, the football playoffs and Super Bowl, I haven't been working on anything for months.
cobraman Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 I always heard that a clean desk ( workbench ) is a sign of a sick mind. : ) Looks very good.
Foxer Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 WoW! I had to look just to see what it looks like ..
Mr. Metallic Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 I've gotten in the habit of cleaning my bench every time I complete a project. During a project it's mass chaos because as I'm looking for parts for one thing I'll get distracted by something else, so I feel the need to reset after a build
vintagercr Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 I redid my workroom and now I'm ready to build again. Yours looks good!
JustanotherKiwi Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 For the first time I now have a model specific space, I am very much liking the layout, those plastic drawers are awesome, I use them for Bicycle parts(another hobby).I hope to organise my desk a bit more with shelves etc when money allows.
Davewilly Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 looks Good...So does that Batmobile! I also see a Box Car on the shelf...My second modeling hobby...
Dave Van Posted February 11, 2016 Author Posted February 11, 2016 looks Good...So does that Batmobile! I also see a Box Car on the shelf...My second modeling hobby...My first hobby!!! When I moved to So Cal in 1960 the kid next door built model cars.......We talk and visit each other often even though we are 3000 miles apart....more than a hobby!!! thx
louie Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Dave, that is an absolute perfect building area. Everything looks to be in arms reach and the lighting looks good too. Mine isn't to bad, definitely not perfect. I need to improve on it some more and I am loving those drawers of yours. Also, you have some really nice car's in the case on your bench. Thanks Dave for sharing this with us ,really cool subject. Jeff
Jantrix Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 When I saw the thread title I was thinking the next line should be "found Jimmy Hoffa."
OldNYJim Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Hey Dave, what's that cool looking bus-looking thing there behind the Batmobile-looking thing?
Roadrunner Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 I always heard that a clean desk ( workbench ) is a sign of a sick mind. : ) Looks very good. Then my mind must be extraordinary healthy.
afx Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 With a clean bench now Dave we expect something special to come from it.
Dave Van Posted February 12, 2016 Author Posted February 12, 2016 Hey Dave, what's that cool looking bus-looking thing there behind the Batmobile-looking thing?I'll post asap thanks
Shardik Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 I was going to clean off my bench, but I couldn't find it; so I just built a new one.
socal76 Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) Dave's post has me thinkng of cleaning my workbench area but it is 12 feet in length, Planned ahead, but still not worked out in reality! Edited February 12, 2016 by socal76
knarf Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Looks good! I desperately need to do the same but I know that as soon as I do,I won't be able to find anything....my thoughts precisely.
