Nice shop. What kind of vacuum system are you using?

Seems you are invading some family room space.

Arthur,

This is Sam from Richmond Hill. Noticed your post and thought I would say hi. Looks like you have lots of toys in the shop...

Sam

ps...Nothing wrong with Tools, I myself have a weakness for them as well. I'll have to take some pics when I get home and post a few pics myself.

The dust collector system looks awfully familiar . . . sorta exactly like the one in my shop.

Of which I can't post any new photos because it's jammed with trailer stuff right now . . . still having to wait out the weather to finish painting inside the beast.

Here's the shop a few months ago as I had it clean and ready to start my Carden Edge 540. I just built that table and it was well worth the effort.

Yes. Those four boxes are the Carden boxes. Only the cowl box remains as the Edge is just about done. Beautiful kit and a great build. Nevertheless, I am primarily a warbird guy and am seriously thinking of selling the Edge in a "Ready to Cover" state. We'll see. It sure is nice. Maybe Carden should start kitting warbirds!

here are pics of my mig, however you can see some of my hobby room. the walls are cypress. the room is over my garage. i lived in a 1200 sq ft home for 10 plus years dreaming of the day we would build this house. we eventually paid off the lot and broke ground. the bonus is i am now 5 min from work instead of an hour with traffic. i know build or tinker most every night. i call this hobby room "the place to be" among my friends and wife becaues it is the place you will find me and a bunch of my flying buddies. i even have digital cable and a vcr. i enjoy building and watching old movies at the same time. take care, barry

here are some exterior pics. i need to take a better one of the hobby room but the little lady left the camera at my parents thanksgiving day. my room has french doors for those really big models and a single door to the upstair porch so when i am ready for bed i can walk out to the upstairs porch and straight into the master bed room. my architect thought i was a nut. my room has a small bed room off one end, i use it to store the big models so they dont get dusty and the main room has four large closets for the average size model and supplies. i also have a full bath out there, just in case we ever had to sell her someone else much more boring than me can make the area into living quarters, but that will never happen. lets see some more hobby rooms. take care barry
