Modeling is a great stress reliever for me, a great way to explore history, a great way to express my artistic interests, and a great satisfaction to see tangible progress and get closure of my efforts when I complete a project.

MY WORKSHOP

These are some pictures of my workshop. I can't take credit for building it. A previous owner had come up with the idea of boxing in a corner of the garage to use for a workshop. When we moved in, I had a window installed, built wall shelving, and moved in a couple of tables I had previously built for other purposes. My spray booth soon followed. It's a very simple construction, based on some plans in an old issue of Fine Scale Modeler. The booth is vented with a bathroom fan that had the highest exhaust capacity I could find. As you may be able to tell from the picture of the booth, I power my airbrush with a CO2 tank/regulator combination. I have the tank replaced about once every 6 months, at a cost of $20 for a refill. I love it because it provides a moistureless "air" source and is perfectly quiet. My display case began as a self-contained storage shelf kit from Lowes. I had glass cut for shelving, acrylic for doors, and installed high intensity lights in the ceiling. When I built it 4 years ago, I had plenty of room for models. Now it's almost full!
