Hello All,

Here is my shop. I extended the garage by twelve feet and now I have a workshop between the garage and the house.

what's a workshop?

I claim a 1 foot by 3 foot space on top of the liqour cabinet...
Look on the bright side - when a build is just not going as you expected you can always down a few shots :-)

Or maybe downing a few shots is why the build is not going as expected - LOL

My wife likes how you hung the wings in pic 2. I will borrow your idea. I have several wings stored under the bed. The fuses are leaning against the wall in a corner.
I am at present using what ever corner or space is momentarily handy since getting booted off the kitchen table.

TotalWreck (post 29 above) your 2nd picture gave me the idea.This apartment has small 2nd bedroom/den That I am using to build in. Today I bought 4 angel brakets. The long arm is 12" long. I added a 1x2 12" long to the 12 inch arm on 2 brackets and a 1x2 24" long on the othe 2 brackets. I drilled 1/4" holes every 2" about 1/2" deep. I used a depth stop callor so I would not accidently drill all the way thru. I cut a 1/4" dowel into 2" lengths, and use these as pegs. These will stop wings from sliding foward and falling off the brackets. I also use the pegs to make sure fuselages stay put, allthough they should not slide on there on.I am still at this time building on a card table. I put a piece of 2" pink foam on top of it and a piece of 1/4" MDF on top of that. I have a magnetic building board that I then put on top of the MDF.A little crude, but for now it works. When finances permit I am going to get an oak work bench from Harbor Frieght And use that as my buiding table.

Hi Guys, It's been a while since I sent photos of my shop, but I've not forgotten this post. So as I was cruising the net (looking for "Powered Gliders" this morning I came across this guy's shop and thought you too might want to eat-your-hearts-out with me.

No one is utilizing ceiling space except Kostas?

This is a 26'X13' room. when I built the garage I split half for my real cars/trucks projects (65 Mustang bottom to top build right now) and the other half for my hobbies.
I am ready to start a scratch built 80"X40" bench.






I forgot my flying trailer. I can build/repair in it also.

OMG, my work room is a mess, but I will post some pics, so you can have a clue how much work I need to put my planes and boats in shape again. But its really a mess, that will make me a bit ashamed comparing all of yours [&o]

Thx Kostas1, It really gets them out of the way to add more planes..lol

Take a look at the pvc hangers I made up on the two planes, Quick cheap and much easier to get the plane down when you need/want to. I made them up for each plane seperately. as you see I need to get a few more built.

Here is my very dusty and zombie populated work room. Lots of stuff from the 70's-80's

If you see something you would like to know, or that you can see on the background, ask, I will be glad to share!
