I'm always interested to see where others work (well, play really). I'm rebuilding my workspace as well at the moment, I'll post some pics when it's done.

Are those RGB bulbs on the ceiling?

Treehugger
Nice to see a clean floor, makes it easy to keep the floor clean, as opposed to having stuff cluttered all around the floor.

Arnaud Hascoet
Hi! Nice cave and collection! Does your air-brush compressor come from Ali-Express? They sell the same one. Is it good or not?
15 June 2019, 16:50
Rui S
Hi mates,
@ Alec & Roland thank you for your Nice words, apreciated.
@Treehugger, no i think they are osram classic 6500k E27 led value A60 9w =60w cool white 806lm:

google.com/search?q=..imgrc=jv4UmI6z25LORM

As to the floor the colour is good but i wish it add smaller rectificated joints, but that's wat i got so i just try to have footers all the way arround to avoid Losing smal flying pieces.
@ Arnoud, most of My new stuff came from evelbay. This compressors machines are all from China and then several brands give them another name.
It's working well but still i have to test it much more.
15 June 2019, 17:29
Rui S
Thx, Spanjaard. Slowly its getting there😢
15 June 2019, 23:23

What a nice place to be/ work/ relax. Looking at your stash there´s a lot work to do in your cave 🙂

Re: compressor, looks similar to the HSeng I have, quiet, cheap at only 190 AUD, and, so far, reliable.
12 October 2020, 05:48
Günther Decock
Mooie werkruimte en nog een stash voor een tijdje. Zit met hetzelfde probleem 🙂. 👍
12 October 2020, 09:05
Rui S
Thank you mates for your Nice comments, much aprecaited.

@Coporado, it was a storage room, so there are two problems, one does not have natural light or the other does not have running water, but that's what you get. now it is a little different, as I moved the drawer modules over the drawing board.
the stash is much bigger than what i will be able to chew, thanks to evilbay.

@Richmond, Yap another evilbay buy. No problems whatsoever with it.

@ Gunther, the only thing I'm m missing now is a sprayboth. I'm thinking building one myself😉
12 October 2020, 22:13
Richmond
I think Plasmo built one from scratch but a work colleague said you have to carefully select the electrical /mechanical parts as they can ignite the fumes
13 October 2020, 08:57
Michael Moerkens
Good looking workplace Rui, with a well originised stash. You can spend many happy hours there 🙂
13 October 2020, 20:11
Rui S
Thanks you very much for the heads up 👍. I'm thinking using a WC fan...
13 October 2020, 20:12
coporado
Rui, everything is well organized and you made it really nice place to work. For having natural light you might find appropriate lamps on the market. Daylight has a range of 5000 - 6000 Kelvin, which these lamps should cover. You can get them for around 20 EUR. I´m happy with 2 lamps providing that range. Particularly for figure painting I love it. Concerning the airbrush both a bathroom/ WC fan is great. You may just put it behind a filter of a kitchen hood. I did mine the same way, putting it in a wooden box and attached some LED stripes inside around the painting area.

Rui S
Hi Coporado, I'm quite happy with my led lights. I have 3 on the celling, two on the drawing board, and a third (hot and could each with ajustements) in the magnifying glass that i always use because I am seeing worse and worse and I already use 2.5 glasses. i Was talking more about an inclosed space without a glass window.
As to the booth, yes that's what I'm planing and use a conduit directly to the ventilation grilles on the left
14 October 2020, 17:59
Rui S
New Layout. Now on the left there is place to a spray booth. One day, one day

Nice setup and impressive Stash!
15 November 2020, 03:05
Rui S
Thanks you Guillaume. My stash is more like a collection, Because I Will never finish all those kits bought mainly in evelbay😉

Logan Eden
Good Morning, Rui Thanks for sharing the photo's of the Man Cave - Work area. For modellers, it's great to see how others have things set up. Looks like a place that a craftsman can enjoy the Art of Modelling. Catch Ya, Logan Post Script: Thanks for the comment on my Sherman.
3 January 2021, 12:12
Rui S
Thx, Logan. And yes, I also like to see Mates Man caves and their setups.

I especially like the precision modeling tool in workbench picture #11, in front of the gold statue. Sometimes you need a little something special when a model just won't go together. Lol
1 March 2021, 00:49
Rui S
@hammer, LOOLLL, I knew that I have a gold statue (offered by my young sun in fathers day). But precision modeling tools, I don't have many, so I had to look and you made me laugh.Thank God I haven't had to use it on any model, yet 😄

DAVID C
Que buen lugar para relajarse! Que envidia sana... ???
Una pregunta, veo que tienes muchas maquetas de la marca ITALERI que tal calidad son? Yo solo hize el tanque FURY y fue bastante malo. Un saludo
22 April 2021, 11:17
John Thomas
Nice modeling area.
22 April 2021, 13:14
Rui S
Thank you mates.
@DAVID, não me posso queixar, mas luz exterior e água corrente seria óptimo 😉
Eu gosto bastante dos Italeri, já fiz o Elephant, o RSO, o Opel Blitz e seu atrelado, todos eles tiveram a sua dose de scratch build, mas isso também faz parte do gozo do hobby, certo?
São kits mais antigos que não estão ao nivel de detalhes dos kits actuais, mas lembro-me de ver obras primas feitas com italeris, por exemplo por Verliden e outros mestres 😉
Já para não falar numa óptima relação qualidade/preço ...

Kerry COX
Rui. Image 12 has me a little concerned mate. ! What the hell is a 500g rubber hammer used for when you model. ???? :-O
I know that some parts don't go together as planned, but wow, a hammer. ??? 😉 LOL
13 May 2021, 19:41
Rui S
Obrigado Jorge, sinto que ainda há muita coisa a melhorar na funcionalidade do posto de trabalho, mas com o tempo e prática vai_se compondo a coisa. O prazer foi meu.
@ Kezza, you made me lough a lot with your funny comment. The hammer was handy when I was mouting the cabinnets, but it's still there just in case 😄
13 May 2021, 20:17
Urban Gardini
It's there for that Pioneer 2 kit in the future...
13 May 2021, 22:25
Kerry COX
I must admit Rui. I do understand the hammer now, having had to use something similar when I put my IKEA display cases together, but the sight of it did raise some alarm bells here. hahahahaha 😉 👍
13 May 2021, 22:49
Rui S
@ Urban, I'm not sure wich pioneer 2 kit, you are Talking about???
@Kezza, no stress, at least for the time beeing LOL 😉
13 May 2021, 23:51
Urban Gardini
The one you'll buy in error...
14 May 2021, 12:53
Rui S
Ahh, that One, it Will have to wait, because I'm trying hard not to buy anymore kits 😉

Kerry COX
It's great to have things all organized, all within easy reach and bright. ! Your a great modeller now Rui, but watch how much you improve now things are, "As they should be". 🙂 🙂 🙂 👍 I have just done the same thing Rui, and I really have got more enthusiasm than ever before to do what I like to do,
10 July 2021, 12:22
Rui S
Thanks Kezza. Yes I understand what you mean, and I can add that with work and practice, there is always more to improve functionality 😉
10 July 2021, 12:25
Bruce Huxtable
More glass cabinets filling up? I'm liking all that space you have given yourself. ?
10 July 2021, 13:08
Rui S
Yap, I've one that isn't shown here, but yes, I will need more.
10 July 2021, 14:04

Really a very nice cave, Rui! 🙂
10 July 2021, 16:58

Really nice work space and impressive stash! You keep it nice and organised, ready for new projects.
22 August 2021, 07:13

Marder III
Jealous ! great set up
Wait till you have collected that many kits, they start overflowing to other rooms for storage 😉

Lenny Li
I noitce the white PC speakers next ot the window - must be at least 20 years new!
1 September 2021, 07:57
Rui S
Thx mates.
@ Jonn, the idea was good but they are not very adjustable any more, because the joints are in poor quality plastic. But they work.
Glad you like my dios, your comment is much apreciated. The autumm One is not finished yet. I intend to add a horse (already Started) and some figures... One day... 🤔

@ Marder III, Thx but don't be, this is a storage room 3 stors down from my apartment... But ofcourse I can't complain.
I'm not interested in (well, interested I would be, but making an efort not to) buying more kits now and I've been able to do that, for some years now. So...
Now what I want, it's to take the boxes out, build them and ocuppy the same space with dios 😉

@ Lenny, hehehe, you are right, they are old (like the majority of my stash), but they still work just fine 😄

An ever improving and expanding empire! 🙂
8 September 2021, 03:26
Rui S
Thx, Villiers de Vos. Improving yes, I hope so. Expanding 🤔 ? Not so sure about that 🙂
8 September 2021, 20:34
Kerry COX
I do hope you have a tread mill close by, or at least some where you can get to for some physical attention. ? As being more confined that most times, and sitting for longer periods of time, exercise is now your best friend. !

Sergej I
Nice cave! Love your stash aswel 👍 and great to see young blood helping 🙂
9 September 2021, 04:51
Rui S
@ Kezza, you are absolutely right, but I'm not a exercise fan, unless it his to Carry a big beer package 😄

@Sergej I, thx for your words. The Young is my older son, 21 now and did not repeat the experience, unfortunately 🙁 I Will have to handle my stash Alone 🤔

Chan Li
Haha, I'm jealous that you have a grown up son, my destructive two year old boy captures 90% territory of my home and my dog and me share the rest 10% on balcony, was creepy freezing out there!
29 January 2022, 01:16
Rui S
Hehehe, you have to enjoy him now, because no time your son Will be in school, and you Will miss the time he was the sovereign 😉
29 January 2022, 01:33
Kerry COX
Rui. I whole heartedly agree with you and your thoughts about being a dad.
My boy had the attention span of a gold fish at four, but now, he is a petty officer in the RAN. Go figure. !
But sharing those formative years I would gladly do again.
BTW, your man cave look like it is a relatively dust free area. Yes. ?
30 January 2022, 08:21
Rui S
@ Kerry, Yap that's it, thx for the suport 😉
My cave has a ventilation grille on the right, that overlooks the sidewalk. the street doesn't have a lot of traffic, and I put an acrylic on the inside, but even so... not completely free from dust and not a big problem. I don't have to clean it often, Why do you ask?
30 January 2022, 14:56
CaptGPF
I loved the pic of your son helping out the most - it's a great bonding exercise - and more importantly, it keeps the hobby alive! 😀. I've managed to get my wife and daughter to participate in a build with me, but still working on the last kid! 😱

Jennifer Franklin
I am envious, you had a fantastic space, and now you have an even better space.
5 February, 00:57
Lukas Muller
I envy you Rui because I work on a 78x52cm table. This is Kingdom for me 😄
5 February, 11:39
Mr James
So impressed with how clean and tidy and very organised 🙂
5 February, 20:46
Rui S
@ CaptGPF, I wish I could say it worked, but no, after this kit, he didn't do any more, apparently I couldn't motivate him enough 🙁
@ Jennifer Franklin, Thank you for your words, but in fact the previous space was indoors so it had better conditions, this one is in a storage room and therefore has less natural light but the worst thing is the lack of water, so to wash my hands I have to climb 3 floors, but I shouldn't complain, as this is my own space and of reasonable dimensions 😉
@ Lukas Muller, I understand your envy, so I can't complain. But the most important thing is to have mojo, because any space will do 🙂
@ Mr James, Only between buildings, because I stop to clean and tidy up before starting the next one. During, it is more or less desorganized chaos. 😄
5 February, 23:21
Anthony lfk
Rui, i really envy your special model workshop...its only a dream for me.
10 March, 08:01
Rui S
Thank you Anthony. Apreciated having this space is Great but also important is the good old mojo 😉
