WEEK 3: “Show Us Your Dock” WEEK 3 ‍☠️ LUCZORAMA

[François]

3 years ago, my wife suggested I move my office/hobby area which was in the basement to her upstairs office/stainglass area. I told her I was happy alone in the basement but she insisted. Well it took about 2 weeks of working in the same space for her to move out. My workshop used to be our son's bedroom until he left in 2009. My wife relocated in our daughter's old bedroom. I must admit that my current space is must brighter and the view much nicer. My current project is a 100% 3d printed 1/12 scale replica of Red skull's car from the movie captain america. The car itself is complete and am now working on the display case.

It's too cold and damp in the winter and currently too hot this summer, but it works for me for about eight months of the year.

Mess of a desk "But I know where everything is". That's the phrase I use if my wife ever comes into my study and complains of the mess. Currently working on two things at the same time, Working on the rigging on the "San Francisco II", and when I get line blind, I switch to a plastic Kit. That current build is the Tamiya kit of the British Universal Carrier Mk II (35249). First pic is of the San Francisco II, Second entire work area, and third the Ship moved in front of the carrier. and yes I did the painting on the wall of Sidney Moncrief'sView attachment 526539 Dunk from a magazine cover.View attachment 526540View attachment 526541

If it's near impossible to see the model ship you're working on in pictures of the "dock" you have achieved workshop excellence. Throw in some Ukraine UGear items and you're taking it to the next level. NICE!

Triumph 6 model completes my Bingo Card.

I might do the TR6 in 1/8 scale. No model of this car exist other than small die cast. Having a full scale tr6 in the garage, measuring would be fairly easy.

When I was 77 I bought a new tiny home. When I was 78 I built a hobby room on to the tiny home giving me a total of 750 square feet. I then proceeded to indulge myself in my model building hobby as much as I wanted. Consequently I have accumulated lots of tools and machinery as I needed them and have made my hobby room a place for total immersion into my hobby and a TV to keep me company along with my dog. Now I'm 83 and living my life the way I always wanted. Nobody tells me where to put things or even if I can have things. I just get 'em when I feel like it. This room has given me more happy hours of pleasure than anything I have ever had in my entire life. Ya, it's messy but I know where everything is and how much I have of everything. I have room for my models, room to build anything I want and room for display even if it is hap-hazard. Time really fly's here because I really enjoy every minute I have to spend here. It looks messy, unorganized and junky but it isn't. Everything is exactly where I want it to be for now. I finally have all my models and tools and other things all together in one room and I love it.

Here are some photos of my Shipyard/Workspace/Man cave where I spend most of my time. Currently working on the ZHL Bonhomme Richard while taking a break on the Caldercraft Victory and HMS SUrprise.

Another wonderful space!

I managed to get a mobile workspace at our oval dining table. When we get visitors i can pick up the whole "workspace" and move it on top of the the drawer cabinet on the right.

This works excellent for me and i like to be around with my wife who is watching tv instead of being alone in de shed where i have a slightly bigger workspace.

Good place ! from all the pictures above, it's the one I prefer : I would like to have as much room as your room

 

[HMS_Mystery]

Wow !! I’m looking at everyone’s ship building spaces and they look incredible.

This is what my dream workshop would look like….

I worked for ages (at least in my terms) on the dining room table for exactly the same reason… being close to my wife (and “life”). But after “ages” she suggested/asked/told me to move to one of the spare bedrooms, and was recently asked to move to the basement. I still prefer the dining room table, but am quite happy in the basement.

My Palace of Dreams. What should be a guest bedroom. Just enough space for tools and a build table. Currently working on a mid section of the French Slave Ship L'Aurore 1784. The jig is built and the first of 14 frames are on the table ready to be cut.

My wife was kind enough to let me use our sun room as my workshop. Currently working on deck furnishings for the upper gun deck on my Vanguard. I just finished making whelps for the capstan and now trying to decide what to do about replacing the cannons for the upper gun deck.

I think your old telephone is ringing.

I think your old telephone is ringing.

Yeah, yeah, I hear it. Hold on, "I'll find it in a minute!"
