Tom Geiger Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 Richard- Are the photos on your phone? Sometimes to get a quick shot into a post, I'll shoot the photo on my phone, then email it to myself. I'll open the email on my laptop, save it, then put it out to my Fotki account.
crazyrichard Posted November 9, 2015 Author Posted November 9, 2015 (edited) i'm online again so here are some updates : added a large mill , a 1/24 scale scooter and some smalls ... the scooter i got in a trade for some wheels , got it i a bag dont know where its from ... its simple 2 half scooter bodys , handle bard with light and 2 wheels and thats it .. while clear coating it it reacted so the original decals where lost and i had to redo it .. it was not as nice as the first time so i mildly weathered it .. stripes are from a gt40 and the speedo a altered decal from a vw van .. made a anti slip floormatt from sandpaper and found a helmet to put on on the big mill you see some metal filings on the floor and on the safety glass / wall behind it ... some parts in the lower shelfs and a hollow tube clamped in the spinner ... Edited November 9, 2015 by crazyrichard
gasser59 Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 Just when I thought it couldn't get any better, it does significantly. That lathe / mill is a thing of beauty.
crazyrichard Posted November 11, 2015 Author Posted November 11, 2015 thnx !! .. i realize i still need to make a new round thing and bar for my vice on the center table lol
Mister Twister Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 That shop is good n' busy....Just as it should be..Great work & keep at it!

The Modeling Hermit Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 You have amazing attention to detail.
crazyrichard Posted March 21, 2016 Author Posted March 21, 2016 thnx guys ...i wanted to start a new dio this winter .. but its almost summer .. had so much fun building cars this winter ..my plan is to revamp my gassstation .. spice that up a bit .. like i now grew more and the base of the gassstation is cool but i feel i can now make it more realistic and add more ... would be nice to build on on that one
Rider Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 Simply in awe of this. It takes me back to an engine shop I worked in as an apprentice engine machinist and brings back memories of my grandfathers auto repair/wrecking yard, Jones Auto Wreckers. This is the best garage dio I have ever laid eyes on. Want to sell it?
Jeepxj Posted May 15, 2016 Posted May 15, 2016 Wow,you have put some really nice work in this whole diorama.I love it.I built a few race engine shops.I can stare at the pics for hours.
crazyrichard Posted October 10, 2016 Author Posted October 10, 2016 so after the garage stood on a cubbord for a while , i got the itch to start on the outside , never finished or did anythin to the outside .. interiour was not done either ...o i took a brake from my barnfind / chevy nova build and started working on the garage again ...long on going project very very rough ! > made a white L shaped edge on top all bondo-ed into one with end caps at the front , corck on the walls to make plastered walls .. all in primer / base paint .. the big window on the side is done all real hardwood , rear window needs finishing .. gap for the rolldoor needs work with some finished edges etc .. and a lot of paint , some logo .. not ment as a true realistic outide .. bit in between just a noce finih so it looks pleasant with a slight bit of realistic finish but not all out ..detailed inside on top along the walls i had like a checkered flag edge .. i hated it ... suddenly lol .. and i wanted to make a wood beam ceiling .. so i stained some wood beams from light to dark ... made it so it went over the checkers along the walls along the office ... overall , then in between will come more beams looks way more realistic this was there before
gasser59 Posted October 11, 2016 Posted October 11, 2016 Oh I have to agree with you on the upper wood trim. So much better. Really looking forward to your progress on this Richard. Carry on.
