Now, now.  I've seen pics of G's bench, at least I think there is a bench under it.  His reply is more in the line of not enough leftovers, supplies, in-progress kits, etc.  NOT a critisizing type of comment.

Actually in the process of redoing "cave" hence, the graffiti. (niece and nephew...cheap AB) First coat of paint, then carpeting. Yeah, I know, carpet monster.  But my exercise crap and recliners and TV need some "style" also.  C'mon, it's the only room GF let's me call my own!

If my bench isn't a cluster then it means I'm not building enough.

Make the most of it, won't be that clean that often. I usually do  apost build bench clean and that takes almost as long as the build. Youi have the begingings of a nice set up there, andthe skull and cross bones will be a nice reminder to be careful when handly chemicals.

The good part for you, Beav, is that your ratio of visible worksurface to "stuff" is practically 1:1.  You only have to be concerned when you can only see the stuff and not the worksurface.  Even at that stage, it's still considered "normal".  So don't worry about it.  You're fine.

I have a question for Morrison, if you're seeing this.

I notice we both use Photobucket. When I click on my or the OP's image, I get a busy Photobucket page with the ability to scroll thru a bunch of pics. I don't want that.

When I click on your pic, I get your pic with a nice neutral grey or black background with the ability to do ......nothing. I want that.

Can you advise what you did on PB to make that happen?

TIA, Greg

My pics do the same thing, it takes you to the entire albumn.  Mine are listed on PB as "public", I suspect that "G's" are locked as "private"

There's a thought, Hammer.

Thanks for the idea, it's a good one. Worth a try.

Well, I had a brother-in-law who fought with my wife over the estate, printed out all thirteen thousand posts I ever made as "Bondoman", and brought them to court to show that somewhere, in there, one of them cast shade on my character.

To which I replied, "if you'd asked, I could have given you the top ten worst".

C areful what you put on the www my friends.

Mine is the same. Fourtunatly, i only put my model related pics on there, all of which are posted on here, so i have nothing to worry about. But i have no idea how to make it private and it should be a simple thing to do.

It was the privacy setting indeed. Thanks Hammer and those of you who commented.

GM, I understand the risks, and that's why I asked.

At any rate, my apologies to Beav, the op, for hijacking this thread. I truly didn't mean to. Off Topic <------- Me!

Hi Beav, Sorry for the misunderstanding. My "humor" gets lost on most.

Here's my bench on an organized day.

I like your setup, and definitely you should keep the graffiti.

Completety my fault for over-reacting. Any Dr. Strangelove fan is alright in my book. (only Kubrick film I can watch in one sitting) But I do get it now, work bench doesn't have to be organized, it just has to be "organized" to me. I do need a new table  though. It's too big and at one time was a nice kitchen table, just needs refinished. Again my apologies. Love the dry wit.

PS. Paint has been bought....carpet bought!

Pss. Are those "real" blueprints in your Grandfathers pic?

New to forums...hope you see previous post. I will be getting rid of graffiti, but adding better looking graphics. University of Michigan fans will not like it. Or University of Texas for that matter. My apologies again.
