discussion Are you a tidy builder ?

[colin m]

Is your bench tidy and organised during a build ? Mine always starts that way, but soon descends Into this ! At this point, I shall now tidy up, well at least a bit.

Mines the same starts off clean and tidy but it doesn't last for very long ends up in a right state but I do somehow know where everything is!!!!

always pretty tidy..........at the end of each session i have to put tools away and have a tidy up so its neat for the next time


i do my modelling in a small space, i soon run out of room if i let it get untidy

Mine is total cluttered chaos! I have a tidy up every so often but soon end up working in the four inch square bit of the a3 cutting mat thats still clear!

Exactly the same here, I try to stay on top of it and keep it clean and tidy. I spray in the same area in which I build, so keeping dust to a minimum is also important.

well my is mostly is total cluttered chaos,and with in that mess my cats still find room to have a sleep as well,


I find if its too neat and tidy I don,t tend to wont to mess it up so I leave it some what messy,it just surprises me how much fits on a dinning room table :$

Mine starts tidy and during a working session gets gradually worse, but I try to tidy up at the end of each session.  This is pre tidy up.View attachment 256997

Mine is organised chaos (at least that's what I tell the missus) in honesty though it's a total mess.

 

[Gwyn]

I doesn't look too bad, but only because I am spread over 3 work areas 

 

[Guest]

like the others, it slowly goes into a medium sized mess then it gets packed away at the end of the day

Great response, thanks to all who replied.


And I glad to see I'm not the only one who ends in in this sort of mess, although I do wish I didn't. I build at the end of our lounge, so vacuuming isn't allowed down this end during a build just in case something small has escaped. At the end of a build when I do finally tidy up, I can't believe how many little pieces of plastic there are scattered around the place.

oh lol,that's my table on a very,very good day believe me ,lol,

 

[spanner570]

Mine is a total and utter s*** heap. I can't work any other way!


I have the whole of my loft (Den) which I fitted out with huge Vellux opening windows at either end, so more than enough natural light.


Because it's all mine, I can leave it in any state.....The only trouble is, I'm now finding it difficult to open the den door for the mess wedged behind it!


Happy days....

So what are we looking at here Steve ? is this what you call a mess ? No, must try harder. There are plenty of good examples of a proper mess in earlier posts.

I always tidy up when I get to the last square inch of desk space.  I am very messy  :$
