Default Where do you work on and store your rc's?

My wife and I are in disagreement on where I should work on and store my rc's. I told her I would poll the people on this website. What ever is the majority is where I will do mine! LOL

Girlfriend doesn't like RCs lying around the house

I have a workshop/storage room attached to our little home office that I use. Its large enough for all the RCs.

You didn't have her sewing room or the garage, lol.

I pretty much use the garage for all. A basement would be my next choice.

I do all my projects and rc stuff in the garage. Big work table and plenty of shelves for keeping up with everything. It has heat and a/c so all year round!!! I also have all my planes hanging there to.

Maybe this is why my girlfriend doesn't want to move in with me... or because I keep my bike behind my couch....there could be a lotta reasons...

Lord, you guys have it tough

I work where ever I want, except that dressing table thingy, nearly got an ashtray thrown at me last time I tried that .

Mostly in the bedroom or the den, whichever is cleaner .

Lol Yeah

The table in the bedroom is home to my 1/8 Scales, and the table in the den is normally home to my larger and smaller scales .

1/8's tend to be more messy that 1/5's lol.

Well sounds like you dont have your own space. Then again, I know what its like, the missues thinks everywhere is her space [:@]

Seriously though if shes complaining build yourself a nice workbench in the garage. It will be better for you anyway. And if shes going to complain about bieng in her way she has to compromise and let you spend money on building the work bench and taking up the garage space.

Default RE: Where do you work on and store your rc's?

its all been in the basement before and its all been in the garage before, now kind of a combo of both, the stuff in the basement has to be organized to avoid nagging but the garage is my land, she complains about it and I tell her to just walk away, I have been telling her we need a shed for two summers now as not only do we have all my stuff but the kid getting more stuff to, I plan to do an bigger shed and want to put a insulated office/shop in it, then my rc stuff can have a permanent home.

I used to use the basement, but got fumed out too many times running my engines down there (stinging eyes, etc.). I've moved everything to the garage where I can open the door if needs be. Only downer is the garage is cold in winter. Kerosene heater and a portable electric heater keep it managable though.....unless I open that darned door to let fumes out....LOL
