So finally I got up the nerve to tackle cleaning out my Father in Law's (RIP) old office and turning it into my building room :thumbsup: THANKS BILL :wub:
Here is the old model building space

Which as you can see is actually mostly library

Now we enter my freshly redone new build room :wub: :thumbsup:

The huge white cabinet is completely full of the parts stash as well as holding all the big rattlecans


As you can see I now have 15 feet of build table :bow:

The stash.Up untill now that has all been stored in boxes in another room of the house.
Also as you can see I have a dedicated computer station. I used to have to perch my printer on a trashcan to use it :blink:. I also had to move the computer to build and then move the build to use the laptop :banghead:
The other side of the room.

I have room to add another display case by the south window  :thumbsup: I'm pretty sure Laurie will be glad to get the rest of my builds out of the living room ;)
I amuse me.

Not all you're doing to the wildlife, judging by that crossbow!  :blink:

Nice setup Ron! :thumbsup:

^ S'pose that's what the crossbow next to the binos is for as well....  :wacko: EDIT: :lol: Weaver beat me by a minute! END OF EDIT

Nice modelling room!  :thumbsup:
Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

See if you didn't do that, you wouldn't need binoculars to see the smart ones: they'd be coming up and eating out of your hand and giving you modelling tips..... ;)

Thanks y'all actually the crossbow is purely decorative these days :thumbsup: All my critters are basically pets and or eye candy. I built the crossbow about 20 years ago for SCA combat and it is definitely not a hunting weapon :party:

Looks way to clean and organized. Give it a week and it will look just like any other model room :)
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

fifteen feet of space just insures I have 15 half built projects!  :banghead: Nice place though!!
