I'm a new member..today. Looked over various workshops. Makes me feel that maybe I'm not as alone as I thought. I'm in much smaller
quarters now than I have ever been. I commandeered my departed wife's "Hoosier" as my main modeling station. The Hoosier has cabinets,
drawers, doors on the bottom and, best of all has a porclin top which slides in and out about 10 inches. Sorry I don't know how to post
pictures but I'll get some soon (somehow) I'm a scratch builder and stick pretty much to older great lakes steam boats and lake freighters. I'm fininshing up the Edmund Fitzgerald which I stuck with the plan scale. It's about 50" long and very hard to handle and will take some
special attention to display.
I sm excited about discovering the "Forum"

Welcome aboard, George.
Yes, the Internet is the great enabler for our hobby, we can display our creations to more than the few friends who we convinced we weren't "looney" or model clubs who wonder why we are building long thin things instead of cars, robots, or wingie-things.
Hope to see your work, I'm sort of a scratchbuilder myself, but on the other end of the spectrum, mostly in the 3" - 7" range. I've found tinypic.com an easy use for posting pictures if you have digital pictures, just upload following their directions and they're pretty durable on the web site, with no membership obligations.
