RC Hobby Work Space
What kind of space do you have for your hobby?
My wife made me a small shop area in my garage. I have a full blown Wood Shop in my back yard but I don't want sawdust in my cars. http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/u...p/CIMG2798.jpghttp://i630.photobucket.com/albums/u...p/IMG_0112.jpg |

RE: RC Hobby Work Space
Any issues with your wood working near the trucks? Cause I have a nice 19X24 wood shop with some nice work benches. Nice thing is it is heated and air conditioned.

RE: RC Hobby Work Space
do the woodworking thing too along with airplanes and it drives me nuts to have all that dust settling everywhere. I need to get a good dust collection system started. i have two cars a mini-baja and a slash and both collect dust while i am woodworking. my planes in the off season get the same way however the dust sticks to the caster oil from my nitro planes.
ps check out this site if you like woodworking> http://lumberjocks.com/ lot of neat ideas and woodworking tips there as well. my profile http://lumberjocks.com/carlosponti |

RE: RC Hobby Work Space
I just started in the hobby so my setup isn't half as elaborate as y'all. I have an old kitchen table setup in a backroom of my house with just a few necessary tools for me and my wifes rc18s. I hope once I start to get a better tool collection and waterproof my shed better; to set up a nice little RC work shop in there.

RE: RC Hobby Work Space
Hey whatever it takes to get the job done!
|
RE: RC Hobby Work Space
Hey, is that a can of nitro force next to the SC10? I use that stuff too. Anyway, that's a cool workshop, I hope to soon set up a workspace as well. I can't put it in my garage so I might use our extra bedroom. I'll post pics of the result.

Right now, my office/den/hobby room is a complete mess as I've moved everything I used to be storing in the basement in there until I finish renovating. Then it will all move down stairs to a custom 20' x 12' hobby room.

RE: RC Hobby Work Space
Quoted from OP's sig:
Pencils are worthless. Unless, of course, If you''re trying to light a fire...Then they''re worth something... The Russians used pencils in outer space as an alternative to developing a pen that would function in outer space. The USA dumped hundreds of millions of dollars into developing a pen that would work in outer space. Not that this has anything to do with the topic. It's just your sig caught my eye and I had to throw out a random fact that LOTS of our tax dollars were wasted instead of using a worthless pencil that we already had uncountable numbers of in every office cabinet. By the way I was going to post a pic of my humble beginners work space until I saw the other spaces shown here. You guys put mine to shame. It's a 3' x 3' bench with a shelf at the bottom and my tool box from when I was an auto mechanic next to it. There is also a small parts tray with several drawers to keep parts organized. Small, humble, and works for me since I only have a small amount of stuff to work on. |
RE: RC Hobby Work Space
Very off topic but very interesting bit of info. Oh come on post some pics. Did you not see the bed work area?
|
RE: RC Hobby Work Space
Yeah, come on and show us what you got. I find it is not the parts, the paints or enen the tools, it is the damn tires and batteries that take up all the room.
As a side note, I have finished the design of a rolling tool cabinet that breaks down to 2 pieces for storage and has a folding work bench top on it for the track. I will be working to build it over the next month as I find tiem. Whne it is done, I will post pics and drawings here. |
RE: RC Hobby Work Space
Well all my rc stuff is in my truck 90% of the time i use it. Just drop down the tailgate and im good to go. I used to use the shed by the pool but it just wasnt workin out. I also have a table i set up outside the garage i work on too. The garage is my dads area, its FULL of car parts. So theres no room for me and all my rc crap.

RE: RC Hobby Work Space
my work shop was my moms band new solid oak kitchen table i used it for about an hour just enough tim for me to have the car down to the fram. then my mom came home and told me i had 5 mins to get of and clean the table or she would throw away a 3 month ol 1/5 baja ss i had broken down on the table. i tod her if she threw out my car o would use my nitro fuel to burn her table she shut up and let me finsh my project. then she let me have our entire finishe attic its a 400sq. space for my r/cs i have a complete work bench for every car i have i have 7 cars. my mom must love that table. it would make good firewood though.
