I have made good progress today but still have a fair way to go.
Here is how it looks now:
As you can see I have moved the spray area to the right to butt against the build area.
This gives me room to put a desk height shelf in to the left the the spray bench extending from wall to cupboard, nearly 6 feet. The shelves will be 18’’ deep for large scale aircraft. This desk level one will be for modelling books at the bench end and completed models on the rest. A high shelf will go around three sides of the room level with the the top of the door for storing, not displaying, complete models, while I will have another display shelf half way between the desk and top storage shelf. Even allowing for some space for my books I will end up with 10 feet of display shelves and about 32 feet of storage shelves. In my garage I managed with about 20 feet total display and storage space combined, so this is a big improvement. If I pushed it I could probably squeeze about double that but that’s maybe for the future.

I still have some sorting to do and I might make some changes. For instance I want to add some ModelZone modules to increase my paint capacity. I may want to attach a unit to the wall for more paint/wash bottles as well. I also need to order a nice comfy chair and, of course, I need the screen to protect the printer from overspray, which is on order from China! Blinds are also awaited!
