Hi Guys,
Got the camera back from my daughter to get a pic of my temporary/makeshift workbench in my kitchen area. This is what it looked like this morning before I sat down.

just got an airbrush this morning for the B-Day, don't think wife will let me set that up here. But trying to lay off the pain pill so I can crack 1 of those bottles tonight to celebrate the double 4's, they have been calling out to me as i sit there
Prost

Theres some great looking workbenches here guys. What I want to know is how you've convinced your other halves to let you take over entire rooms. I always get kicked out onto the back patio by my parents whenever I want to paint something
.
In my case, it was easy, we've got a large home - but - there's only me and my wife. I convinved her to convert one of the spare bedrooms from my former office-away-from-work into a craft room specifically for her
before we even moved in.
Me assimilating the custom room in the Garage was easy to do after that...

@ Nick: what do you use that big saw for
@ Sal: I see

some party supplies on the shelf in the background. What is it used for?
@ Justin: I must have missed something in my political approach to my ex back in the 90's to use the office

for a hobby room. It never happened.
@ Jason: I am with Matt, what is your process for the vac?
@ Damian: WOW, your bench is really-really clean.

Bob,
Thats only the lower shelf the shelf above it has most of the party supplies

I'm currently set up on that resin table in my kitchen area because I can't make the stairs.

Here's my mancave. Actually I did clean up a bit before I snapped these pic's. I had to throw out 9 empty cans of Copenhagen and several half bottles of spit.
Desk #1
Some of the stash
More of the stash
More, more of the stash

Yes Hermon, you have a problem, but whats in the ammo cans. I keep at least a 1000 round of all major calibers on hand just in case
But I must say it looks like you have some great lighting.

Hermon, your work area is way to clean and I see know weapons of the caliber that we (I) would keep in my basement if I had one.

Show pictures? Ha,Ha,HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHhhh... ohhh...
I have a 12 x 14 bedroom upstairs, and have dedicated 1 bay of my garage to my projects and both areas look like Counter-Terrorist units just used breaching charges. Maybe I'll show y'all on one of my "lack of better judgment" days. They seem to be occurring more often.
C'mon Hermon, Never in the pics! You know they've got some computer geek in Washington trying to figure up what you have. As for me, I've spread the love and am even sharing part of it with Mother Earth.
Funny, I hear Blackhawks...

Settle down everyone! I can assure you there is no funny business going on in my man cave. The safes are where I store my Tamiya and Hasegawa kits. The ammo cans hold part of my "spare parts" collection........and the pistol cases are simply to keep my snacks in while I'm working on my models.
Jan, I LOVE your set up! I wish I had enough room in my workspace to have a computer so I didn't have to run upstairs to upload my lates progress pic's. Really great use of space, and tidy too.
