I don't know about you guys, but with such little wind on the slopes I'm spending more and more time in the workshop.
So I thought of starting a small topic on workshops,.........
I'll show you mine and you show me yours, sort of thing. Just for a laugh :lol:
However, having taken all the snap shots, (All three of them. I've only got a little one!
) I then remembered I'd have to crop them to fit on the forum. It turns out that you can't see much at all :!:
Oh well, I've already taken the picies now, so what the hell!
In our house what is now my workshop used to called a bedroom. In fact we tend to refer to it as the Modelroom because although it has a worktable in there it also acts as a store for my little "fleet" of flying machines.
So this is the operating table where I give birth to, and later administer first aid. (Or open heart surgery!)
The shelves only had half a dozen items on them when I first put them up. I'll have to replace them soon with bigger ones. Yes, I know I should put the items in a logical sequence :!:
The glue's are all in much the same area but everything else has just stayed where I first put them. :oops: (Know the feeling?) At least I know where everything is, even if nobody else does. And I know when "someone" has borrowed something and not put it back in the right place! :wink:
This recess is the old built in dressing table. An old bathroom cabinet with it's doors removed houses most of the "electronic" gear for my powered model. (Chargers, balancers, cables ect) With scrap pieces of timber on the left, spare parts tray in the middle and mains electrical tools (covering iron, hot glue gun, large soldering iron) hanging on the right hand wall of the recess.
Here follows the model rack, opposite the worktable, which holds all my childern. (Well, apart from a couple of grown men who, over twenty years ago, I held in my arms and who looked like a couple of pieces of chewed toffee.) (But I'd never say that to their faces now!
)
From the bottom up:-
At the front of the lowest rack is the fuse, and just behind but hard to see, is the wing of my little Filip 400. A lovely little machine, with a "Band Aid" around the fuse to improve it's looks! :wink: (NOT)
Behind the Filip, up against the wall is my ever faithfull, and newly recovered....Zagi
Moving up,-...... the non-covered wing of a Phase 6, and lying on top of that,....the
'new boy on the block' an EPP wing.....the Skua S-15 which is also in the process of being assembled.
Next are the wing halves, and above those, the fuse of my powered Pulse 60.
And right at the top, (hard to see because of the cropped picture).....the little girl who started it all for me just over 12 months ago.......the airframe of a Black Horse cessna.
So,............that's mine, are you brave enough to show me yours? :?:
Go on,........You know you want to! :lol:
