I will have to do that as well. I may have just started back in to modelling but I already have a surprising amount of paint.

Yourself and downtime will have to build some racks. Pantherman

Cabinetmaking is actually one of my, many, hobbies. I built a drawer set-up for my excess paints - I never have just one bottle - running out in the middle of something is terrible.

Downtime, what can I say........... 3/10. Steal the wife's spice rack at the very least.

I've always envied these kind of benches, i can't make it because i have two lcd monitors on my bench. Also monitors prevents spraying even for the smallest job. By the way congratulations for your new bench, i hope you use it in good days and produce great models on it.

It works, spice rackish, yes. Functional? Yes.
At some point I will own all of the real-estate of the dining room table.

Thought it was time for a mancave update.

Having been inspired by several fellow modelers instruction stands I decided to make one. Never realised how much easier it makes things and how much bench it frees up. Pantherman

Your space needs to be more homey, let me work there for a few hours...

Yeah, I have an easel at the right side of my bench, and that's handy. I can clamp individual sheets or photos to it, or go up to placing a book on its tray.
The whole thing is about 4 and a half feet tall. The flat surface is about 30 inches by 40 inches, maybe.
And I salvaged it from some family's trash! Now, I didn't just take it. But one day I was driving past a house, and I saw this nice easel out with their garbage cans. So I stopped and I asked if they minded if I took it. It wasn't broken or damaged; they were just remodeling their kids' playroom and got rid of it.
It's handy to have a pickup truck, for just such an occasion...
