Here’s my Colorado workshop where I just spent an hour looking for my pin vise which I needed to drill the holes for the eyebolts and rings on the hatches of my Bluenose. Kinda was expected since I had hurriedly switched rooms in the house before being gone for 2+ months. But at least it is now a bit more organized, and I did find my pin vise.
And here’s my workshop in Puerto Vallarta where I work on my Molino (Buccaneer) - yeah, it’s a small table in the corner with everything packed up before we left. I can’t complain as it is in Puerto Vallarta.
Here is my shipyard. It is a corner in the basement. The Santisima Trinidad Cross-section is my current build. Seems like every couple of weeks I'm adding something more. This week a corkboard will be installed over the table.
Just rigging the Golden Hind, then off to the left it an Astrolabe to finish rigging.
When I finish a model it goes in my display room. Been modeling four years now ,eight finish models, three on the go , but feel the need for a OcCre model to complete my kits.
Hi. Even a small workshop is a joy. Sometimes, issue of reaching an agreement with the family is worse than the space. This has always been a problem for me, my wife did not agree to a living room and a hallway, but i came to an agreement and i have a workshop in... a pantry by the kitchen 2x2.5 meters with a slope on one side and between supplies, products, jars. It is an ordinary desk 120x40 maximally built up on the wall, with a lot of shelves for tools. I do not even have windows here, only a construction lamp above the desk, but i have a piece of land to work on. It is a matter of willingness. One large model is a few years of fun, before the rigging is fully made, it does not take up too much space. My wife has never been too keen on my models, but recently she has given up because she sees the effect of my work. Currently in "workshop" is a OCCREs frigate Nuestra Señora de Las Mercedes. A model up to 120 cm long will also fit here if nesesery.
You ask why I'm sitting in the pantry instead of garage? I live in a high mountainous region of Poland, where temperatures are very low from September to May. I don't like to freeze, it's always warm here. And there are snacks...
Have fun.
Kuba.
When I first started building the Rainbown model from Amanti—still in the box for almost 20 years!—my workspace was just a small table in the family room with a handful of tools. Over time, I worked on the San Juan and Bounty launch boats using the kitchen table and a small guest room table. I even finished the Carabel La Niña on a portable table in my room (with a special permit from my wife ). Now, my garage space is defined—table design done, wood and tools ready to go—and I’m looking forward to setting it up and starting my next project soon!
Hi, This is my messy worktable, current build SS Sirius 1837. My previus builds. Looks like need more room when finished. Also have the Etoile to build
This is a rare view of my building table cleaned up and waiting for the next project. It was the scene of countless kit massacres but also witness to a lot of fun and quality time spent doing something with my hands. This is also likely the space where I'll (try to) tackle my first wooden kit and first model ship one day. I keep returning to this forum for the incredible amount of inspiration it carries over and over again.
