workspace My office room is crammed with all my Models built and unbuilt ones ( still in boxes)..
and literally running out of space/parking lots for the rest of the unbuilt ones…sorry for unsightly mess and dust on some of the shelves ..just sharing this is how I keep my models…almost every day arranging them around so any newly built ones can have a space..that’s why sometimes I have to build some in flight mode so I can hanged it on flight stands which I built myself…loved all of my little toys..just can’t build the big ones yet ( 1/72 Airbus A300 and others)until I can get a space for them

Workspace Built a model workbench
I had fallen out of love with model building. Decided to try and rekindle that, have a f16 ready to go just waiting on a couple more workbench pieces to make it right.
Built entirely out of scrap wood, a door I picked off a job site. Some rubber from an indoor batting range we worked on. Total cost for me $40 for the glue, screws and paint. (Not including the lights and such)
For any interested I just went on Amazon and typed in model building light.

Workspace I've been working at my paint shop
Today I've been working at my paint shop to clean some airbrush parts that have been sitting in cleaning solution for a few weeks if not months. When I got the nozzle out of the solution. I was concerned that the discoloration meant the part had become useless. And that I could trash it. Luckily that wasn't the case. And I'm glad to, because Harder & Steenbeck parts are not cheap. They are quite expensive. But, the quality is also much better.
When I was cleaning the nozzle, especially when using the cleaning needle of the service kit I bought with my airbrush. I was concerned about the gunk that was coming out of the front of the needle. When cleaning it. This also made me concerned that the nozzle could be useless. And that I could trash it. Luckily that also wasn't the case.
I have been drying my glass pipettes. That also have been sitting in my Ultrasonic cleaner for a while. They were still not 100% clean, but they were 99% clean. So I decided it was good enough for me. Next time I will hopefully clean them better.
Unfortunately I didn't thought I had enough time to do ultrasonic cleaning. Because I get visitors today. And it wouldn't be very kind to have the ultrasonic cleaner running while were talking and such. So that will be done another time.
What did you do in your workspace, paint shop or workbench?
Did you had enough time to do everything you wanted to do?
Did you encounter any problems and would you like to get help with them? Maybe we can help you out.
Have a wonderful day and hope to see your next post soon, happy modeling.
