I'll show you mine.......If you show me Yours!

(1/8) > >>

Happy Days:
I don't know about you guys, but with such little wind on the slopes I'm spending more and more time in the workshop.
So I thought of starting a small topic on workshops,.........I'll show you mine and you show me yours, sort of thing. Just for a laugh :lol:

However, having taken all the snap shots, (All three of them. I've only got a little one! :( ) I then remembered I'd have to crop them to fit on the forum. It turns out that you can't see much at all :!:

Oh well, I've already taken the picies now, so what the hell!

In our house what is now my workshop used to called a bedroom. In fact we tend to refer to it as the Modelroom because although it has a worktable in there it also acts as a store for my little "fleet" of flying machines.



So this is the operating table where I give birth to, and later administer first aid. (Or open heart surgery!)
The shelves only had half a dozen items on them when I first put them up. I'll have to replace them soon with bigger ones. Yes, I know I should put the items in a logical sequence :!:
The glue's are all in much the same area but everything else has just stayed where I first put them. :oops:  (Know the feeling?) At least I know where everything is, even if nobody else does. And I know when "someone" has borrowed something and not put it back in the right place! :wink:




This recess is the old built in dressing table. An old bathroom cabinet with it's doors removed houses most of the "electronic" gear for my powered model. (Chargers, balancers, cables ect) With scrap pieces of timber on the left, spare parts tray in the middle and mains electrical tools (covering iron, hot glue gun, large soldering iron) hanging on the right hand wall of the recess.






Here follows the model rack, opposite the worktable, which holds all my childern. (Well, apart from a couple of grown men who, over twenty years ago, I held in my arms and who looked like a couple of pieces of chewed toffee.) (But I'd never say that to their faces now! :) )

From the bottom up:-

At the front of the lowest rack is the fuse, and just behind but hard to see, is the wing of my little Filip 400. A lovely little machine, with a "Band Aid" around the fuse to improve it's looks! :wink:  (NOT)

Behind the Filip, up against the wall is my ever faithfull, and newly recovered....Zagi

Moving up,-...... the non-covered wing of a Phase 6, and lying on top of that,....the 'new boy on the block' an EPP wing.....the Skua S-15 which is also in the process of being assembled.


Next are the wing halves, and above those, the fuse of my powered Pulse 60.

And right at the top, (hard to see because of the cropped picture).....the little girl who started it all for me just over 12 months ago.......the airframe of a Black Horse cessna.


So,............that's mine, are you brave enough to show me yours? :?:
Go on,........You know you want to! :lol:

Fred:
Good idea Keith !
I'll take some photos of mine tonight  :wink:

Bit ashamed of it as it is really really messy !
And it's clean compare who my workshop was a week ago ! (holidays cleaning...  :!: )

Happy Days:
Yeah, I think the rule of this thread should be that all picies show the workshops 'As Is' i.e. In normal state with work in progress. (No clearing up or placing all tools in tool rack :wink:  That's cheating!)


K.

Fred:
I'm doomed ! :oops:  :P

Fred:
Alright so, I show you mine !  :P
No Shame !

View right from the door...



Oh yeah, forgot to mention... I spent a week cleaning last week...So this is as clean as it can get here !  :oops:  When I cn open the door, it's a good sign !  :lol:



In front of you, one of the 3mtrs workbench, reduced to about 50cms thanks to the mess ! :!:


More wings and fuselage...

And the door...  :wink:


The tools bench... Jigsaw, belt sander (xmas present  :D ), Dremel etc etc, and soon, a pillar drill to be added to the lot  :D



The CNC corner...


Plotter and more gliders !



Corridor with All the big machine (front), wood stock (one of them!), wings on the wall on the right, and at the end, don't open the doors, but more gliders inside !



And that's it ! You know everything !

In total, I have 2x 3.50 meters workbench, + 2x 2meters ones (all on wheels) and about... ah well, when you love, you don't count !

I also have a shed... Maybe nearly half the size of the garage, full up to the roof of boxes and even more planes... :oops:

Big skip ordered by the wife in 2 weeks for a massive clean up !  :D
