The new apartment and hobby room looks great. Also, the scale garage is incredible. The level of detail, particularly with the Tamiya boxes, is brilliant.

Thank you very much Sam!
Glad I was able to move here when my mate built it. Now I`m looking for my own place as I got new landlord last year and I just want to move to be honest.
Also turning 50 very soon so it`s about time I get something that is mine.

Thank you very much again.
I`m very glad it turned out like the vision I had in my mind. Wanted to build a scale garage for years so I had been collecting bits and bobs for it.
Next one will be larger and in similar style.​​​​​​​

Paint racks arrived a couple of days ago.

And finally I had energy to do a rc Friday.
At first I did not see how it was supposed to go together as there is no plans included.
Then I noticed the "sidewall panels" was in two pices diveded by just 3 small tabs.
Cut tabs, file down then put it together.
This was a very tight fitment, so no need for any glue at all.
Next time I will sand the slots so they go easy together and then glue it.
It`s large!! (60cm wide)


I had more Tamiya bottles than I thought so I have only one slot left available.
The new 10ml jars are X and XF.
Had to move a lot of stuff to fit this.


Used a couple of hours to tidy up my hobbyroom, still a lot left as I have to play tetris to fit it all 

Speaking of tidy up. My scale garage is a mess atm so it needs to have a proper clean so the inhabitants can celebrate xmas

Dudes got new Christmas tree this year.
I bought it at the Princess shop here in Norway.
It`s 15cm tall but I still thinks  its on the small side so next year I will hunt for a 20-25cm one..
Also added 4m of battery powered string led.





Was planning on making a star for top of the tree, but I never got round to that.

I'm fan of this xmas tree. Just the good size for the garage space.

Time to clean up my hobbybench and sort stuff etc.
Tired of have 14 bins with assorted bits after projects etc. 
It's a total mess atm!
This is AFTER I cleaned the floor as I was stumbling over things due to the clutter and boxes.

No more projects before this is fixed!
