Guys, After spending the last 5 years working full time running the train dept at a local hobby shop, I was let go for economic reasons. Working full time didn't leave a lot of time or energy for actually getting my own projects done. So as I look for other work, I've spent time cleaning off the work bench and organizing projects.  And my method for sorting projects and organizing them. Each box holds a shell assembly, detail parts and decals for a particular engine project.  And the cupboard that holds most of my paint, was a mess, now neatly organized by type/brand  So hopefully now being more organized will spur some progress on some languishing projects. Bob Teusink |

Great pics, but if you're anything like the rest of us it won't stay organized for long. ;D

Randy's right. The busier I get, the messier it is. I even thought about doing some "before" and "after" shots of my space when I cleaned up, but I never got past the "before" stage before I started something else! Good Luck ;D

LOL, isn't that the truth. Once work starts its all a mess....
I can't count how many times I've "ORGANIZED MY WORKBENCH" only to see it get effectively killed by doing work. One project, its ok....add a second, its a tad worse, third project and well, GOOD LUCK FINDING ANYTHING.
I finally bought some of those desktop organizer drawers (they are like 3 or 4 drawer plastic units) they work wonders. I start a project and all the parts go there. Works well...

Bob,
Nice looking workbench... now, set your pathetic backside into that chair, and get something accomplished... I really cannot remember the last time you actually finished something.
How about the D&TSL GP7? Wright Trak caboose, or any of the other variouos projects you've started, but not yet finished. as they say "Get er done!"
Brian ;-)

Now that is a fantastic well organised bench, everything in its place and a place for everything,just wish i had the room for a similar setup.  |
