Two small wavy glass block ones behind me, but can't see through them and they look onto the drive between house next, so not much light. A true man cave. PaulE

Hi PaulE, Jim standards of entry into the tidy club are very very high indeed, I think I've failed twice to get in.
As for windows I think you could ask JR he could knock you up a few, sorry couldn't resist

Yes indeed windows r us. I have no idea why you have not gained full membership Pete, I had temporary membership but lost that over night some time back.Hi PaulE, Jim standards of entry into the tidy club are very very high indeed, I think I've failed twice to get in.

Hi Guys, I haven't been keeping my set up tidy since re-shelving it a year and half back. The table looks empty as I've moved operations to the upstairs computer room for the time being to be with the new kitten...
There's a now and before comparison...
Old T-shirts hang on the left as paint or airbrush cleaning rags.
Cheers,
Richard

Dear Mr Low
Thank you for your latest set of photographs to support an application to the TBC (Tidy Bench Club - UK division). I notice that you are associated with one Mr J Race. We have had dealings with this gentleman for many years now and in truth those dealings have sometimes been strained. He has enjoyed temporary membership but frequently lapses back into old ways and membership has to then be reluctantly suspended. I tell you this to forewarn you of the dangers of allowing standards to slip. As Mr Race acknowledges the club standards are very high. We represent the pinnacle of quality.
Your application photographs were considered at the last meeting of the membership committee. In these trying times this was a virtual meeting. Apart from myself the committee consisted of Dr A Mess, Proff Uther P Yoors, Major Ivor Biggun and Miss Busty Topp who kept the minutes. The following represent the committees main findings.
The thermometer on the wall is a nice touch. We do not want any risk of over heated Toons.
Your brushes are neatly stored with the hairy bits correctly pointing upwards.
The paper towel holder means that spilt paint, glue smears, sneezes and any personal hygiene issues can be quickly dealt with.
The windows looked clean which allows the outside world to be enjoyed when a break from modelling is needed.
The well positioned bin impressed. All rubbish was in it and not scattered around it on the floor.
In the light of this the committee have decided to grant you full TBC membership for a 12 month period. This is of course subject to all requirements being maintained. Spot checks may be made. The membership fee of £5000.99 should be sent to Mr Umbarla Umbala, 1 Big Con Avenue, Abuja, Nigeria.
Congratulations and wishing you an enjoyable membership. Your bi-annual club magazine, "Clean and Tidy" will be sent out as soon as the editor comes out of rehab.
Yours Big Jimmie MacBummcrack (membership secretary TBC)

Very jealous of these set ups. I rent a single room in a flat, so whilst I am lucky enough to have a designated desk and a window...I am not blessed with space. I also have to be careful when using anything smelly!!

I'm guessing you are not terribly old, Jack, unlike many of us on here.
I had a succession of cupboards and cubby holes and cold garages before I finally earned my loft - after 35 years of marriage (and to the same woman, too!).
Patience, young man!
anyway, I envy you your window!

I'm 32 Neil, and working in London which I never saw as permanent, and also involved a lot of travel, so made no sense getting my own place. Getting lot's on inspiration from the posts above however! Will probably greatly influence decisions when I decide to buy somewhere!!
Congratulations to Mr Pete Low on the momentous occasion. I however am saddened once more that I am unable to gain entry to the TBC.
Recent Photos, show that an effort has been made and I feel it is grossly unfair that this will once again be rejected
.
It is no worse that many on here who have lifetime membership, consequently I have written to my MP, demanding a full inquiry.
