4x8' bench for the power tools. I'm hoping to get then cut today and assembled by tomorrow.
Wow, it's gonna take a while to re-sort all this mess!!

Re: gomachv's hobby room- then and now
Competed 1.5 tables today...not much left but putting the legs on the second one. I also cut the planks for the "torture rack" which I hope to start on in the morning!
The tables were based on a light aircraft assembly table that I extended a bit and dropped the lower shelf. Same concept just a little more to my taste

Re: gomachv's hobby room- then and now
I think my idea for the torture rack will work. We ripped all the lengthways pieces at 10°, so when the plank is set in it holds the car at a slight angle to hold it firmly in the groove. They can be glued, screwed or nailed but probably won't need it. I figure this rack will hold a total of 94 vehicles- 16 trucks, 50 buggy and 1/10 pan, and 28 1/12 scale. Woot!

Looks fantastic! I'd love to have a dedicated shed like that. You could actually shorten up the planks a bit so they don't protrude past the noses of the cars. Not sure if that would look better or not, just a thought.

Re: gomachv's hobby room- then and now
Those are just a mock up, the trucks have the long planks, buggy and pan car are shorter and 1/12 is shorter yet. I should be able to get the last cross piece cut and up tonight, pics will follow!

Re: gomachv's hobby room- then and now
Put up some of the shelves, I guess I do need to cut them down a bit. I ran out of steam so I didn't get to the trucks yet. Also, nothing is in any kind of order yet lol.

It's still going to be a tight fit with all my "wants" but the 10x16 shed is about perfect
