hey guys, feel free to post your shops here.... i always like seeing what other people have and often it gives good ideas on how to set one up or move things around!

not sure when we are going to have it yet, but you should come up!

Of course i usually have a fun run in April as well, work in the shop some then go to the pond down the road.
I'm up for it! Sounds great!

And as far as the arm room thing- that'd be a design feature.... :cool_1:

Is the felt still there?

thanks les,

i still need to wire up some outlets, finish the ceiling (you cant see it but half the basement has that white drop ceiling stuff... thats what my plans and flag are attached to (the metal part), and build some shelving units. Eventually i'm going to build another of the big wooden tables to put all my saws and stuff on.... freeing up another drydock!

A Tiger! Burn the heretic! :flamed: Oh yeah, nice looking work area.

Sean,

Mikey and i talked about having a build session at my place sometime this winter (lots of room!) ... i'm sure there would be some treaty and some bbs folks there, as well as some that do both!

indeed, its cracked at the base of the stern support tho.

I went to build a new one...you can kinda see it made out of PVC and PVC insulation down below it, but with IJN bulges that doesn't work well, besides i like how easy it is to carry... you can stick you arm through it (under the ship) and not worry about breaking the superstructure.

Man, you still have my old stand!

Got my new shop set up, sorry the pic is dark...

Lets see, thats a 1/144 IJN Kumano, 1/144 IJN Fuso, 1/75 USS Monitor, and prototype for a 1/144 Schnellboot S-100.

Also a Tiger that i'm not sure what scale is (all are or will be R/C... and all do or will shoot BB's except for the Monitor ... and i haven't decided on the S-100)


I've got a belt/disc sander, band saw, scroll saw, and drill press in there, with about 5 dremels and a bunch of other hand tools...... i think i'm pretty much set.


Oh yes, i've also got a white ensign on the way to represent the HMS Roberts that will soon be in the drydocks!
