Hi. Thought I'd post something a little different. . This was taken while working on Amtechs Huckebein. It's going together pretty well. Thanks for looking, Wingman out.

Nice setup. I like your work area.

Are you a drummer as well as a modeler? I saw the Zildjian sticker.

Later,

You are very well protected against fires
Very nice area

Nice picture, I'd love that set up.

Later, Hi Ryan. Thanks. I've been playing the drums off and on since high school. I've been playing in our church praise band on Sunday nights for about two years now. Thanks for looking, Wingman out.

Hi Andreas. I love coming down to the bench and staying up late[if I'm not working the next day], turning on some talk radio and enjoying a hobby that I really love. Thanks for looking,Wingman out.

Ha! So I'm not the only late night modeler, talk show freak around here? :-)

Three questions wingman
1. Do you listen to Coast 2 Coast AM?
2. Being in Pennsylvania, are you a STEELERS fan?
3. Pleeeeease tell me how you made that paint organizer on the wall. I'm sitting here lusting after it.

Hermon Hi Herman. Yep it's Coast 2 Coast AM. Sometimes when your down here working on a model and they start talking about ghosts and weird goings on it gets a little creepy, but it is fun. I'm not as big a fan of the Steelers as I used to be but I still like to watch them. I hope they get to the super bowl for Jerome, he deserves it.The last few years I've been getting into NY Rangers hockey. It amazes me how they can skate and pass like that. I made the paint organizer by first attaching lenghts of one by two to the wall with screws that are made to go into concrete block. I then measured and cut a section of peg board and screwed that into the frame with regular screws. The shelves that hold the paint were made with thin lengths of wood that are about one to two inches deep. I took some trim molding and nailed to the ends, front and back with small nails to hold the jars in place. The shelves are placed on top of the metal hangers that are used to hold tools that you would hang on your peg board. Hope this wasn't too long an explanation and I hope it helps. Thanks for looking, Wingman out.

Hey Wingman,
I know what ya mean about the ghosts and stuff. Seems like everytime that happens, my miniature schnauzer picks that very time to start howling or scratching under my chair while I'm modeling. :-)

Yeah, I've been a Steelers fan since the 70's. I've taken enough crap over the past 20 years that I and they deserve a trip to the Super Bowl.

I gotta build myself one of those paint shelves. My desk looks like a paint truck turned over. Hey, how bout the next picture you post you move your head out of the way so we can see that groovy paint booth you've got there.

Small world isn't it? I play the trombone in our churches praise band. That doesn't make me a band geek does it?
