WELL THANK YOU SIR but its easy really as the leds now all come with their resistors all ready fitted so i dont have to try an find the correct resistors for the leds all that i do is just fitit them in the plane where they are suppoce to be fitted but i must admit its a bit of a fiddley job but i enjoy doin this on my models

My modeling space used to be an 7 ft. by 10 ft. room shared with a sewing set up. We called it "The Microchip." unfortunately, I have no pictures.

Well, golly. I don't have any photos of my nerd cave's workbench because it's just a jibungous mess at the moment, but I do have some videos from 2022.

The first one is of my model stash.


Next is of my workbench, supplies, etc.


So this modeling/gaming/computer room is where I spend my free time. My daughter comes in and likes to lay on the stack of pillows. Plenty of mood lighting. My wife always insists on harsh fluorescent lighting all the time (it's a Japanese cultural thing which can be annoying). Even on TV a month ago it was said that mood lighting is best for nighttime because it relaxes you before bed. Here is my hobby room late at night:

Wow, these are some very nice workspaces for modeling. They make me feel very small and novice in comparison to my modeling desk and small cabinet. I really need to step up my game...lol.

I started off with a smaller setup, but it keeps growing. I'm in a closet upstairs. I have a spray booth to the left that you can't really see. By the way, hello….first post on the forum.

By the way, hello

Howdy! Welcome to the addict... we have an introduction thread where we all can meet you all!

That's about the size of the Microchip, looks like. Modeling accessories and tools follow the natural gas laws, expanding to fill any available space.

And welcome, fellow addict!

This thread has motivated me to I post some images on my blog of some modeling workbenches of people in Japan and how they overcome the more confining areas due to limited space. (No account or login required to leave a like.) I saved these images from Pinterest.
