What is the cluttered workbench?

Hi Guys

 

Just what it says on the tin - my home workspace that like many others is covered in best intentions as projects are started and moved to one side. Hopefully the chance to share these with others will now get them finished. Feel free to whip me along - everyone else does!!

 

So a quick tour...

 

The work area is an MDF 'tray' built specially for the job and is a big cousin of the ones we use at The Facility which will no doubt feature in other posts.

Cheap artists brush stands are utilised for general tool tool storage. Paint pallettes are used to keep small parts from going missing during assembly.

The right hand side houses a stand for pliers and cutters plus my soldering station. Also just in this picture you can make out the flexible drive from my dremel which hangs from a stand.

Power supplies for the bench. The single socket is controlled by a footswitch and is used mainly for the dremel.

Similar to above but shows the gooseneck document holder used for project references.

So time to get on with some modelling!

Those are some serious looking work benches with a superb array of tools which all make my little one look very inadequate.

But then mine rolls away out of sight under the layout when not in use.laugh.gif

I like this work bench. Neat. How did you get o make the cabinet? You give ideas. My desk is more like the untidy ones.
