I just love their idea of using the cannon from the Aircobra up front! That ammo holder is so unique. Lovely model and also a well appointed workshop. I imagine you have more cool tools on the other side:O)

I was puzzled about the cannon until I did a bit of research and found the funny shape of the mag was due to it coming from an aircraft.
Yes I have the luxury of lots of cool tools, in fact over the last few years I have bought just about every Proxxon tool there is :embarrassed:

Some of the goodies in the workshop 8) mind since these pictures were taken it's a bit more lived in and has had a few additions such as a dust extraction system and yes more shelves :embarrassed:

Having a few power bench tools does make life a bit easier though I have found that the really fine work has to be done by hand as you cannot beat your own motor skills when finishing off sanding or shaping a piece.
Definitly a well laid out workshop. I aspire to being as tidy and hope to keep my boat building mancave tidy once fitted out. It needs tanking in areas to keep the water out.

goodnesssssssssssssssss grayone :o .....
do I count nine [9] Proxxon machinery items in your workshop?........just :embarrassed: jealous ..... Derek

If you were to look carefully there are 16 Prooxon items in the pictures {-) and at least another 10 that you cant see %%. My wife thinks I collect Proxxon tools rather than use them ok2

Blimey Grayone, you must Hoover up after every visit to your workshop, what a nice tool collection :-))

It is part of the creative hobby sphere collecting tools and making those odd wonky things that we use a couple of times a decade or just for one job.
More than keeping your tools visible, keeping the benches tidy does prevent damage to larger parts of suprestructure etc..
