Just wondering Bill, do'y charge per hour or by the day, I've never seen such a tidy desk, please come round and do mine !
5 days ago my desk was tidy, well tidyish, when I finished my diorama, the following photo is how it normally ends up. While everything looks a right old pickle, I can generally find what I want ----------- some times --------

Maybe this is why I've gone from 1-72 down to 1-350 and now work mostly on 1-700.

I have an old steel case desk that I'm going to be putting in my basement! Then I can leave everything out, and not worry about someone moving anything, dog's tails, or having to put it all away for dinner. Oh Yea, did I say I have a 42 inch flat screen down the basement? :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1: :thumbs_up_1: And she thinks I'm doing it for her :rolf_3:
God grant me the courage not to give up what I think is right even though I think it is hopeless.

From bedroom to office. From office to bedroom. And now, from bedroom to Model Room!

I bought new furniture for my business office and moved it elsewhere in the house. And I am now using the old office desk as my workbench. I've moved up from the basement to the spare bedroom.

I still haven't fully moved in or started work on my models, yet.

I agree Carl, that is a cool paint job in your man cave! I am surprised I have not seen anyone else do that, very original :thumbs_up_1:

I'm glad that you guys like the draft markings and paint job.

The room was initially my office and decorated with memorabilia from my Navy days. It then was transformed to a bedroom for my grandson and now is back to a nautical theme with my models and workbench.

Now, I'm back in action and getting comfortable with my new work space.......

Don't feel bad Matt, that was how I used to have to work. It was like that until about 8 months ago...
