Default RE: Show off your workshop!

Well I am not into showing off and my garage sure isnt a show room but, It does serve my building RC airplanes, Welding, Mechanic, Houshold Projects, Parking for Bikes and whatever else I need to work on. My building table doubles as my welding table and I have 3 other work benches in the garage for heavy dirty work and soldering and electrical etc at another bench and small power tools,drill press, scroll saw, disk/belt sander and standard grinder. I have my computer and a nice old 27 inch Trinitron along with a DVD player on my desk and I have my tunes via a decent set of speakers on the computer. I have tried many ways of organizing my RC stuff that I have collected over the years and hit on the plastic storage drawer sets from Wal Mart as a good way to keep all the little RC related parts, glues, paints, squares,clamps,servos and related electric general stuff that piles up. I aquired a small roll away from my son and installed drilled wooden shelves/rails around 3 sides drilled with many holes of various sizes to accomodate all the tools needed to build and maintain my airplanes. I put a Robart plastic airplane holder on top and it is sufficient for an airplane up to 60 size to do general maintainence or whatever. I am never really done organizing my things it seems but that is fine as it changes with my current needs. I store my airplanes overhead to keep from bumping them and getting hangar rash, I can even charge most of them hanging up. I really would like to have at least 2 larger building tables as I mostly always have a kit being built and there is always at least one airplane that needs some work. For what its worth here are a couple of pics of its current state, it is always changing to meet my needs and I have everything on wheels that I can. My building table is aircraft grade aluminum honeycomb so it is dead flat, just wish it were larger.
