A full shop, cool. I converted my garage about a year ago.

Some other suggestions are, lots of lighting. I put in 5 twin bulb 4' florescent light and am considering adding more. I decided to use the magnetic buildboard method as described by Paul Johnson on his website www.airfieldmodels.com. I build my workbench as an island, giving access from all sides. It's a 4'x8' torsion box construction benchtop covered with a sheet of 16 gauge cold rolled steel and a base made from two steel shelving units (Gorilla shelves). I added upper and lower cabinets along two walls for lots of storage and more counter space. An air compressor is a good item to have around a shop as well as a good shopvac. If you plan on getting into building from plans, scratchbuilding or kit bashing, a band saw is a huge help. I'm working on my first kit bash, and have used my new band saw much more than I thought I would. For inside cuts like bulkheads, a scroll saw would be helpful. As an alternative, there was a thread where a guy took a jigsaw and mounted it upside down on a table, with the blade coming up through the top.
