Here is a quick tour clockwise around my model room from the doorway

the mobile paint booth vents out the window when in use and rolls out of the way when not.

Thanks

[thomas LB808 Labanon]

Thanks guys. Keep it comming.

On another note. Living on this ISLAND. There is NO hobby/model shop here. Clossest shop is on OAHU. So alot of my stuff comes from the internet. We have a Walmart and a Kmart, but they hardly have anything NEW.

[SpreadAxle]

In your situation, I would probably stock up just as much.

[thomas LB808 Labanon]

LOL, I know.

LOL, my wife just made a comment. She said I am the local MODELSHOP. Wich is true. I sell to my buddies. SO yeah I'm da MAN. LOL

[Dragon7665]

:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

Wow I would be a Kid in a Kandy Store in any of those Hobby Shops 8)

[Mack_Mechanic]

Here's my space,not many models.I am kinda particular about the kits I buy so I don't have many kits...yet.

[mikelo]

There is a lot of neat and creative ideas. I love the bridge display, and chains! That is what I need to keep the kids away! Here is my space. Before you ask, my wife has bad allergies, so the only way I could bring them in the house was to take them out of the original box (it was amazing how much dust and cat hair had collected in them over 30 years!) and put them into what you see. The new ones go into the closet in thier respective boxes now. I made the showcase out of those finished shelves you get at Lowes or Home Depot.

Here is my freshly made paint booth. Seeing as how I work for carbon company, I installed a carbon filter so that it does not need to be vented outside. It works pretty well. It depends on the paint. I am still glad it is the garage.

[Drago]

[bsoder]

Here's part of my corner a my "world" my spray booth is out on an enclosed patio..hey Calif. weather I guess I'm the lightweight here,I only have a paltry 70+ unbuilts!!

and of course my technical advisor!!

[Mike]

Nice collections and work areas everyone!

Here's mine in a rare, clean state LOL

My stash that's grown by about 1/2 dozen kits since this was taken so I think I'm up to about 60 or 70 now.

[Exotics_Builder]

But I'll show you the exotics kits I have. I build a lot of different styles, but have a yen for exotics (no pun). I'm running out of room to store the kits and have lost interest in a building several of them, so may likely be "thinning the herd". The Ferraris are pretty much staying although I might let go of a couple of extras. Still making plans.

Next time maybe the Chevies or the Street Rods unbuilts. Eventually I'll do the workbench when its a little more organized.

Anyway, here's my exotics collection (the unbuilts):
