RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

How did you know that ????

Ahh my collection right now... Is it half dark or half light... (this photo is actually from around 2009)

Getting ready to build up my new cars for next season (we break over Christmas here).

Took a couple of snaps - most of the cars are vintage runners - so I keep with my modern racers in the same place. Makes for interesting comparisons of old and "new" sometimes!

Like others, for the vintage stuff, all the boxes have at least a couple of cars in each - and parts for those runners.

Its a sickness!

That's what you call a dedicated space Retro!!

You know, I don't think it's a sickness. It's a cure! Nice place Retro R/C!

Ha Ha,

Thanks guys, I reckon the "man cave" is a good cure for some of life's troubles sometimes too!

cheers

well, my hobby room is getting closer.

i got the last piece of drywall up christmas eve.....
and got to work on spackling. i had someone else come in and do my kid's bedroom, but felt like trying to tackle this one on my own. for never really doing it before, i think it turned out pretty good. 4 days later, i had the room in primer.
sorry for the crappy cell phone pics.....

Looks great, Scr8p!

i just wish it was bigger. 6 x 11......... doesn't give you a bunch of room. but atleast the majority of my r/c stuff will be out of the basement and i can get going on some renovations down there.

That seems like a decent amount of space...it's not the size that matters, anyway!

6 X 11 is a pretty good space to work in. Just put up lots of useful shelving. Of course that does mean you'd have to poke a bunch of holes in that pretty new drywall...

it is a decent size. but you don't understand the amount of r/c crap that i have, and hope to wedge in there.

not only that, but when we bought the house, that room was dedicated as my "nascar room". i have over 300 1/24 nascar diecast cars, and the majority of them were all setup. i'm hoping to be able to get them in there again, too. but, i don't see it happening.

Looks good man! Seeing some of your bodywork on the full size cars, drywall mudding probably seemed familiar!? I did my garage this fall, and it was my first time finishing. Bloody mess though.

glue the nascar cars to the ceiling.

now that the holidays are over i get my work space back, just a desk in the basment. good thing though because the garage is friggen cold right now!

i'll snap a pic of my meager work space tonight.

thread bump.

other than painting the door, my hobby room is now complete. time to fill it up with toys now.
