SORRY SIR BUT YOU ARE IN VIOLATION! All that empty pegboard is a violation of Man Law #214-09 subsection 45. Pegboard must be filled with tools or other important articles relating to items outlined in Man Law #099.

I'll only warn you this time as long as you promise to fill that space up with tools and stuff. 

Failure to do so will invite those of the feminie gender to fill the space with pink and lavender girl stuff. ACT NOW BEFORE YOUR MAN SPACE BECOMES SHE SPACE!

Gerald, Jim that will never happen I work in the the model industry and I use that space for work. I'm useing the wall space for all my builds.I just have not got-n around to hang more shelves. I have file cabnets and box's to store all the clutter.

 

Frank I was trying a new technique with CA and my foot got in the way. By the way I see you eyeballing some of my kits, dont even think about it.

Thad - Gerald is right - you are in violation of so many man-laws!

That plus "A clean shop is the sure sign of a sick mind!" Next thing we know you'll start building armor or something Laugh [(-D]

Hehehe... Doesn't look like you have room for those two Wildcats and the 1/48 Revell B-24D.  I'd be happy to make room in my stash for them for you.  Hey?  What are friends for, right? Whistling [:-^]

In Thad's shop I would have a fuse here......landing gear way over there......cockpit drying over there........etc. I'd do 6 miles a day! But the space itself is mindboggling.

Yep Thad, I suspected as much. While I was waiting basement temps to get into painting range.....I started a couple other kits......had to force them to a faraway top shelf so I could concentrate on the foremost project. With the kits out of reach......I think twice when I peer up at them......and focus back to the kit in front of me!

Good luck!
