TJTX Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 Been a little busy lately, but I managed to pull two builds back out to start working with again. Got my Wingnut Albatross and Tamiya Mustang out. Hoping to maybe get in an airbrush session tomorrow. Been almost 5 months since I've touched plastic. 7

BlrwestSiR Posted October 6, 2020 Posted October 6, 2020 Well, it worked. The big hurdle with the Fly kit. 8

TJTX Posted October 7, 2020 Posted October 7, 2020 I'm not lying, there is actually plastic on the bench! Way way way slower build pace than my old life but any progress makes me happy! 8 1

He's fairly capable with tools considering he's only 7. He's not bad in the kitchen either. Just needs a bit more patience. 6
BlrwestSiR Posted October 11, 2020 Posted October 11, 2020 Happy Canadian Thanksgiving folks! As a result, no bench time today as I was working on this: Carl 6

Bill, the frames were broken in a couple places and there was a lot of weird lumps and flash along most of them. I decided to chance it and glued the breaks and clean things up before removing the pour stubs and it worked out. 4 1 1
HubertB Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 Rien, zero, zilch, nada ... But then it means I have completed the move to the new house and I have finished resetting the workbench ! Time to reintroduce sme clutter, methink Hubert 9
Jackster Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 What a fantastic setup Hubert! What's going to be the first model to hit the mat? Cheers Kev 5
Bomber_County Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 It’s to clean and organised to mess it up........ 4
HubertB Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 Resuming my IBG PZL P-11 in 1934 Paris Airshow livery is #1 on the list. Then there is Fisher’s Gutless, or maybe Micro-mir Miles Magister ... So nice I got a second one before starting the first Hubert 6

Time to reintroduce sme clutter, methink Hubert I hope you don't mind, Old Buddy, but I saved a pic of your bench for inspiration for my set up that I hope to get right this time, Cathy and I are going to do the same thing, and I get 1/2 a room to do as I see fit, so I am looking for others' ideas on their set ups.... I really like they way you organized this..... great stuff, thanks for showing us this.... 3 1

GazzaS Posted October 18, 2020 Posted October 18, 2020 A bit of a bench upgrade for me. I got a new, rolling chair. and a small wheeled cabinet which will perform a couple tasks... for instance, the capacious bottom drawer will become my sprue organizer once I decide on how to fit separators innit. I had been using a kitchen chair and a short stool to hold the model box. 6
