Thank you. I tend to get in a "zone" when building and forget to take photos, but now the camera is on the work bench. Thanks again for your interest.

Been working on this 2 post lift made from... you guessed it, styrene. I would have preferred steel or aluminum but I already had styrene so I didn't have to search for metal pieces. The styrene allows for more detail and it will support my 5.5lb. scx10 but that is probably close to the limit. Now it will have to wait until the weather warms up enough to paint outside, could be months.

Thought my scale garage needed a welder, so here it is. Next will be a welding helmet and grinder.

| Re: Scratch Built garage accessories It's a self healing mat. The wife said someone would notice how clean it is when she saw me cutting on a scrap piece of wood, and teased me about the concept of a cutting mat. Thanks for noticing.

Had a week of great weather and was able to use mother natures spray booth to paint and then finish the lift and welder.
