Got my work shop area set up

[1BadJeepBruiser]

I purchased my own home back in October, needless to say it was quite a chore moving all of my RC stuff from parents to my house. I got a work bench for Christmas (harbor freight) from my mother and finally had time to assemble it this. Its a nice size and fits under my basement stairwell so its out of sight for the most part. I finally starting organizing my parts on the supplied peg board and I would say the basement RC stuff is 90% set up at this point





Im a bit of a sticker whore, I have a whole box that I keep them, youll notice some OG ones and I have enough that I was able to duplicate the pattern from the left and right into the middle of the shelf



The bench is nice, came with a florescent light and built in outlet set up. I plan to add more lighting though, might go LED.

And here is the rest of the basement so far, still got hang up my recently frame coverage from when my Subaru WRX was featured in Subaru Of America's Drive Performance magazine and my limited edition XX of 100 KartBoy Subaru skate board deck













Still gotta figure out what I am going to do with my race clodbusters, I think I might hang shelves over the one set of cases as I really dont want the huge rack taking over the basement



Thanks for looking
MIke

If only it weren't blown up now 400whp on a stock block was never a good idea but it was a lot of fun until cyl 1 shit the bed...kinda usual for these cars too, it's usually 4 or 3

The first couple of pics didn't really impress me...but then I saw the rest. Nice.

[dont slow down]

Dang, I can only hope to have a place like that for my cars one day.

[Metal Militia]

Very nice. What is your overall impression of the Harbor Freight work bench. Iv been eye balling one to add to my work area for a while but have read about some issues with the drawer fitment.

[Androtaz]

WOW!!!!! Just WOW!!! dude that is one hell of a set up. Wish I had that kind of room. My stuff takes up half my bedroom. I sleep in my work shop lol

[boosted4lyf]

Mike, we need to talk about your problem buddy.

[pardonmyn00b]

You could probably buy a second house if you sold all of that RC stuff.

[Indetrucks]

You have an excellent set up my friend! I use my coffee table in the living room to tinker. haha
Have a garage too but I like watching and listening to TV while I tinker.

So far I think its nice, especially for the price. Its a good size. only complaint I would say is the lighting fixture could be bigger

They say the 1st step is admitting you have a problem... "I definitely have a problem"

Haven't in quite some years now, those are my stepdads. I don't think we have been to an nrctpa event since 08. It's hard with my job and the rotating schedule to make events right now.

[BigSki]

Really great that you got your own place and you can set up the hobby area the way you want to!

[buggynutt]
