How many of you have a dedicated modeling bench.Maybe if I did my productivity would increase.Sometimes when I think I'm in the mood,I get everything out only to find out I'm not in the mood so every thing goes back.If I had a bench I know I'd save hours looking for misplaced stuff.Pictures would be nice also.

Here is mine currently. Even though it looks bent in the pic, the desk is actually straight. The pic is a little fishbowled for some reason, even the poster at the top looks crooked, but it actually isn't. I think the camera may have moved when i pushed the button. I might set it a little higher on some 4x4s. Needs to come up 4-5 inches, it's a little low to the ground for my liking

Mine is a computer desk from Wally World. The bookcase that came with it is full of paints and airbrush stuff (other side of room) and a printer cart is the home for my paint booth (which sits along side the window so I can put my vent board in the window (wood with dryer vent hose that goes to fan exit on the booth). My booth is homemade from cardboard and has workied well for 1-1/2 years. Not bad for no cost.

Hi there This is my part of the workdesk area in the shed This is my wifes area We also have the island unit that we can move around a bit and stand at with vices and vertical drill station. It is built on a pallat with castors and a kitchen base with drawers with an open area behind for boxes. Home made spray booth is an old golf-ball typewriter sound proofing box Current project with plans protected using tough clear perspex sheeting No neck strain now the work areas are at normal desk height with normal, comfy, office swivel chairs Have a good New Year and all the best for 2008 Keep your craft knives sharp and your glue bottle lids shut tight Nige

okydoky that's a pretty sweet workshop you have.
My main work area is somewhat small, because it's in the sleeper of my truck. The Kenworth 72" Aerocab sleeper has a cabinet behind the passenger seat. When you open the door, there is a folddown desk that latches into place, and that's where my creations happen. There are 2 shelves in the cabinet that store a lot of supplies and paints. The shelves above hold my kits, as well as the boxes I use to store my frames as they get completed to keep them from rattling around in the kit box. If I had a pic I would show u.
At home, I'm in the process of repairing a room, so I can set up my work space. Hopefully, if I get the garage built later this year, my work area will be out there, and that room will be my office and display area.

I might set it a little higher on some 4x4s. Needs to come up 4-5 inches, it's a little low to the ground for my liking I had to add shelves just to hold all the paint. Top shelf is 3 deep, the other is 4 deep.

So far it looks as if everyone has a permanate work area. Well since the wife and I are currently in an appartment I have to keep my work bench mobile and able to pack and store easily. All my kits are stored in the large walk-in closet. Spray paints and the bulk of my bottle paints and other misc. supplies are also stored in my closet as well. The small plastic storage containers are real handy for having what I am working with real handy.
