I've just gone through this thread(s) again. I have to say I'm amazed at the ingenuity some people show to make the best of what's available to them. I'm lucky to have my own space now, but like many I've worked on everything from a tray on my knees to a computer table in the front room which I had to pack away every evening.
In the end it doesn't matter where you build, just so long as you build
I have a huge shed set up as my model room but I still like to bring my builds up so I can sit in front of the telly with the family and build on the coffee table. The only downer to this is that I always forget something and have to run down the stairs to get it, oh and when company come over and see all my mess on the coffee table.
I just asked the wife if she minded if I did some modelling on the coffee table (solid oak, polished thing). I'm guessing that the "your balls will be stuck to the table if you even try" look suggests it's a non-starter for me. Man cave it is then.
Yes it is very nice to have your own space. Moved in to a two bed flat, whoops one bed and model room, heaven after working in a garage in the winter with the wind and even snow bellowing thro the gaps around the door.
I just could not model in the same room as my dear wife. A concoction of Coronation Street, EastEnders would drive me totally to distraction. She loves me being in MY room as she can then watch everything she likes and everything I hate. A very happy situation.
