Darin Bastedo Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Here are some shots of mine... the drawers underneath store all my airbrush paint, and the pegboard accomidates a lot of supplies and detail parts. Across the room is where I take photos, wash up, and have more storage for books and other misc stuff... In the back is where I do research on the web, any computer work, and post on the boards. I often will do some of my sanding or tedious work here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenb Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I got tired of working off the top of an old steel desk. Spent under a hundred bucks on material, and this is what I have now I'm pleased with it. I have everything at my fingertips. Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darin Bastedo Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 how many people have thier workspaces in the garage? how do you keep the temperatures stable in those spaces? I have heat in my garage for the winter, and where I am in the mountains it is very mild in the summer. I open the windows and screen door and it gives me a nice cross breeze all the time.The hottest I've recorded in my garage is 75 degrees.

seeker589 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Wow, these are some great workbenches. Nice and clean! I agree. But isn't a clean workbench the sign of a sick mind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
