Here is my shed....
I made a room over my garage(carport)
The room is about 30m2
It's not at it's present stage as you might can see of the models.
Now it's a bit more messy and the T40 is under production.

That's a nice little spot Johnny, a nice view of the world as well! I love the paint tin rack.

What is the aircraft on the shelf, looks like a Beaufighter or something similar?

Here is mine, not a workbench but a workshop.
I call it the squeeze, because it is all in a 16ft by 9ft sectional that I built and fitted out myself, there is a double socket every four feet around the walls, a total of 11, so I can basically park my bum anywhere and work.
The boat end is slowly being shut down due to me not being able to handle the very small parts any more, and the weight of the boats. A new lathe will be going in there.

The standard has just been raised, Barry, Johnny and Bogstandard(John) are just amazing and it's hard to choose between them, I've just been moved in to the smaller bedroom so my son can have the 2nd room, so I don't have no where near as much room as I used to.

Mine has progressed a bit since the last time. I now have a couple of sets of shelves in the garage to accomodate the ever growing fleet and a new lathe and milling machine. Not quite up to Bogstandards level but OK for my bits and bobs.

The other side has now aquired a kitchen unit to make the boat on which is a major improvement as I can now walk around the model without having to take it off the bench every time.
