My "new" workbench

Album image #1
My work bench is a complete chaos. It will be refurbished in the next week. For this picture I have allready removed the Dillon 650 reloading press which used to be on the left side of the bench, eating a lot of space. 
 

Album image #2
My setup will look something like this, giving a workspace of 110x65 cm which should be enough to build 1/32 scale airplanes 
 

Album image #3
Cleaned, with tools ready. I built a few sections some days ago. The multi media module is nice. 
 

Album image #4
All moduls come in flat packages  
 

Album image #5
This is a corner module. I guess this is the one with most pieces. But the fit is «Tamiya Shake and Bake». 
 

Album image #6
Finished the first corner module. It took a little more than an hour to finish this one. As mentioned earlier the fit is very good and it is easy (and fun) to build it. 
 

Album image #7
Missing a couple of modules, but it is ok right now. I´m getting a bit tired of cutting, glueing and taping even though the fit is excellent. This is the right side of my bench with a paint station and storage for some kits. 
 

Album image #8
Centre part. More storage for tools and stuff than I need, but then it is a waste to build storage for just what I have… 
 

Album image #9
Left side, paint racks, storage and some kits. 
 

Album image #10
I´m missing some corner modules and some other pieces which will arrive next week. 
 

Album image #11
I got the last modules yesterday, so the «new» bench is operational. Let the build begin! 
 

Album image #12
Did another upgrade. More storage and workspace.

I'm not sponsored by Hobbyzone in any way, but I have found their products very usefull for storing paints and tools for scale modelling. Their modular workshop system designer is brilliant when it comes to design the setup for my "new" bench. Have a look at it here: hobbyzone.pl/en/modu..hop-system-designer/

I'm not in any way jealous... It's what I would like to do with my area, but it doesn't fit my wife's vision of the space were in. LOL..

Looking at the pictures and seeing your tablet propped up, it is in dire need of an OM15 Multimedia Module. But it all looks good.

I have the multi media module Michael. It is a waste of time and money.

I'd be too scared to use it in case I got it dirty.

Nice setup! Hobbyzone products also found the way to my bench and I can´t say anything bad about it. I only have one question - is the color rack placed in the reveal? I don´t think either direct sunlight or the heat on this area will be good for any paint. What do you think?

@Thomas: It´s been there for years. No direct sunlight and the window is mostly covered in snow… 😥

Album info

My current workbench is good (200x80 cm), but for the last years it has been abused with a reloading machine and all sorts of crap, resulting in me basically been able only to build models in 1/72 and small 1/35 kits. Now it is time for a change!
