discussion Project modelling room!

[BattleshipBob]

Bob, I just went through this thread, which I, unfortunately, missed up to now.
A real cosy painting room. Hope you'll enjoy many wonderful and peaceful hours priming, thinning, painting and all the stuff related to the colourful side of the hobby.

Andrea

Thanks Andrea, pleased so far

Loving it Bob!!!

Now where do you live?? And when do squatters' rights kick in?? :smiling5:

No way, I have savage guard kitties, real beasts lol

 

[Ancientmariner]

Ta very much

The new large booth, a joint birthday pressie has arrived. They look fine against each other. However if I leave the side and roof led lights fitted there's the led trunking in the way

I would have to use both turntables to raise a ships hull high enough to clear

If take the lights out I of course lose lights but the floor is level. Out of sight there's a ceiling mounted led batten which gives of good lighting. Will have to experiment??


By far the biggest problem is the ventilation trunking, its very stiff and a bugger to use, so my yearly brainwave!!!!

I am going to use tumbledryer vent pipe instead, so much easier, phew problem sorted!

Bob re the lights, Aldi do led light strips (or eBay) about a tenner that you could stick round the inside as an easy and quick solution?
Lovely booths!!!

Not many can say their a two spray booth cave ! Nice Bob .

 

[Ian M]

Looking very nice in there now. Looks like the spray booth is ready for another War canoe or two.
About the trunking. Once you have confirmed where the spray station will live the rest of its days, you might want to thing hard pipe most of the run. Just a floppy bit to get around the tricky bits...

 

[dave]

Just caught up on this, looking good.

 

[BattleshipBob]

Fitted the tumbledryer pipes and they work a treat


Good flow of air and easy to store. Nearly finished

Now I forgot, you may notice the tea tray! I was going to get Julie to use it to bring me coffee and cake on a regular basis, however she promised to insert it into a very painful place, no guesses for where!! Another idea wasted!!

 

[Tim Marlow]

Looking good Bob, even without the tea tray. Not sure I’d cope with the open window in the depths of winter though :anguished: Is there any way you can port them through the wall, perhaps through the stud wall into the rest of the garage?

Just get a burco.....and a small fridge.....and then you'll annoy Julie even less........you don't want cake though, unless you want ants and mice, and cake crumbs make it harder to find those small bits of pingy etch.

Thanks to Chris & Jen the room has officially opened. I have returned the paints back to the house, despite the insulation and carpets the room is only a few degrees warmer than the garage.

Already moved some stuff to make it more user friendly

First customer, a U Boat!



The cheap IKEA shelves hold the thinners, cleaners etc and the wooden box's weathering stuff. Will no doubt continue to move stuff about for the next few yrs! The toner box makes an ideal U Boat dust cover!!
