Mines is a simple garage but these days , because of the heat , i prefer to make my stuff @ home in my room , The spad too was built in the room i took pics of......  ;D

please don't shout at me the following pictures are not recommended for people with a weak heart.  8-) 8-) ;D ;D

i feel homely here but my mother doesnot she was cleaning my room when i was in the school she by mistake threw my elevator system into the dustbin and then i had to take it out to get the hinges and control horns

i am thinking of a massive cleanup operation as some of my contol horns are missing :o :-\

you my friend have just posted what can be aptly called "every mothers worst nightmare" :D

Subbu! typical Nerd's Room.. keep it up!!
  :thumbsup:

BTW, how you have this vintage Samtron Monitor ? they used to hit during my college days in  1999- early 2000s!! did you buy it 2nd hand or your elder bro/Dads ?

Mine is the floor of the apartment - with all the "nice stuff" packed into a kit bag at other times, planes in various stages of "development" hanging off curtain rods and on top of cupboards all over the house. With balsa stock and ARFs in cases in the loft where the family can't complain or even know that these exist.

 ;D ;D ;D

HEY GUYS MY NEW WORKSTATION IS SUPER COOL AS I SHIFTED TO MY NEW HOUSE (sorry forgot the caps lock)

actually when i upgraded my pc i bought a quadcore (intel q6600), a super cool nvidia graphics card (replaced now i think that was the 9800 or the gtx edition) and a super cool motherboard and 4 gigs of ram and i was nearly out of money so i could replace my monitor but in in december last year i bought a lg super cool lcd monitor qhich can support super high resolutions so thats the reason

oh igot that monitor in 2002 i believe with my p4 pc


you are truly right my mom used to be after me everyday to clean the room but it was so good organized as everything i needed was on the table i never liked cleaning it

subbu

I refuse to post the photographs of my study (now it is a workshop). Compared to my 'workstation' Subbu's room looks like a Mercedes showroom! ;D

Heres my workshop. An entire room dedicated for RC. No one is allowed access in the room. Always locked. ;D

Lemme show off mine. Its a small table with tools. The store of motors, servos, props, Rxs, Lipos etc is in another room, stored in cartons.
I was rewinding a CD Rom motor (850kv) when clicked.

There was a time when I was still in school and I had my study room converted into full fledge 'Electronics' Lab... Now living with Room mates and Flat mates over all these years, this small table serves as my Work Bench. Alas!! Wish to have a small garage workshop sometime in my life!!

Pic 1. Estratos being restored on the workbench
Pic 2. Another shot.
Pic 3. My Mini store full of BL, Lipos, Electronics and Lots of plastics etc. My F-22 Raptor in the lower deck, waiting to be maiden one day, when I feel confident to fly out of the SIM.

I find my workbench like a Tin Shanty in front of a dedicated R/C workshop Floor owned by Astha sir!  CRO, Hot wire Foam and What Knought!

My RC Car workstation

Here is my workstation and planes....

A room dedicated to the hobby  :banghead: :banghead:

Three new planes to come by this weekend.... The Edge 540 , Seagull PC 9 and BI-PLANE...... ;D

Planes seen in Pic  ;)
1. Seagull 40
2. Seagull Boomerang
3. Fairchild PT-19
4. Jumper 25

my study table was my work station since i was 11 or 10 years old.....since then my dad use to call it my junkyard.... :giggle: :giggle:.....................my drawers were stuffed with my things...such as wires circuits switches....and ,may other extra terrestrial stufff... :headscratch: :headscratch:......made many things on it...also did operation black-thunder :headscratch: :giggle: :giggle: :giggle: :giggle: :thumbsup:

same here,
when i was 12/13 my study table , drawers and even by bed were my workstations
(i'v had a billion of these)
but the times have changed now,
though i still keep these stuffs in my cupboards

Due to the heavy monsoons, (which are playing havoc on my competition grade balsa),my builds are all over the place. So, is your hangar workshop as messy as mine?
Cheers

From Vikramaditya to Vikram - Apart from the potty trainer, my workspace looks just about the same on a good day...........

P.s. I LOVE the wooden flooring!

the potty trainer is weight to balance during curing. my girls are teenagers. if you ever in sikkim.... be my guest
PS: my full name is also vikramaditya.

So is mine and she is in college now. Coincidences galore..................... :thumbsup:

Have some wonderful memories of Sikkim. Been there more than once. I had set up the DOEACC Training Centre back in 2003. Regret not having picked up a Samurai type sword from the market there, as I was flying back. Lost my heart to it.

Edit : Got my prepositions mixed up. Horrendous and unpardonable on my part. Frightfully sorry, old chap.

All thanks to my  Dad, he takes care about the order of my workshop

Nice, will ask the maids to save me the jam, honey, coffee jars. good idea.
Due to the recent earthquakes in Gangtok the Maruti workshops are no longer fit for .... commercial purposes as per...

I believe strongly THERE IS A METHOD TO OUR MADNESS.... just need to figure out how to keep apart my Imperial and metric tools

Nice build thread there in RCgroups Vikram.

May be I am missing something but What's the APM 2.5 ardu flyer doing inside a propeller less trainer. :)

Or was it just for the added weight.  ;)

Oh no, the build pics were improperly posted. Those belong to the 60" Medicine Man:

Power pod on top of wing for emergency maneuvers.. I have few thousand feet elevation advantage from DaraBulbulay to the stadium below. Same route the local paragliders use. And my boys will be there for recovery IF...

Interesting !!!!.  :)

subscribed. will wait for the final build and maiden.

Can't refuse VC esq.

sanjay sir : your workstation looks like Hardware and tools shop. :giggle: :bow:

Sanjay Sir,

That was the workspace I was eagerly waiting for.  {:)}

Sanjay sir: How are you able to keep it tidy?? I clean my workshop one weekend and in next two weeks its a mess again..Ofcourse, its a orderly mess where i know all my stuff.

Sadist! >:D

Wonder why the rack has a header with such a prophetic line - This too shall pass.....................pass where? To Guwahati, I hope.

 :rofl: :rofl:

I did not notice that VC. Good observation.

Thank you Nitinraj, I only wish it had everything, then I would not have to go to the Hardware Store  ;D

Doc: It's very easy to keep orderly - just tidy up every day after finishing. Or, tidy up just before taking the photo  :rofl: :rofl:

VC: The placard 'This Too Shall Pass' is intended to soothe the innards of those tormented by little green monsters, who look at my workshop with covetous eyes  (such species have been observed in Guwahati  ;) :giggle:)

Sandy, remain an officer and a gentleman, and do not get influenced by 'those  :giggle: Guwahatians'  :rofl:

This, ill feeling towards Guwahatians, too shall pass..............................Amen!

It has. Like the ill wind, which we fear not ;D:D

I hope that was implied only at a particular guwahatian
 :rofl:

To comment now would be hazardous to life and limb  :rofl:

:D that is a passing face   ;)

Wind and passing and face - terrible combination. You should never PASS WIND on someone's FACE. CHEEE!

All you guys need to visit your gastroenterologist.

I need to learn workplace discipline from you sir ji  :bow:

Aside from dedicated dehumidifier, etc., I'd be interested in hearing how everyone is storing their balsa this monsoon season. Forget about knee joint pain in this weather, seems the wood is faring worse.
Both hard and contest stock is warping away. Couple even split on their own. Have tried everything from cling wrap film with silica gel to spraying with isopropyl alcohol. No go. It's no use even cutting strips as once off the plank, they take their own curves. Am shaving 5mm stock to get straight n square 3mm. Guilty feelings. See attached photo of pontoons for my Schneider Trophy racer. Both built off same crutch/jig. The one on left I took to bedroom last night to install water rudder servo. Returned to workshop this morning and one on right has developed curves off its own. Thought of steaming it back into shape but worried Fevicol aliphatic glue joints will fail as well.
This is stock I brought with me when I TR-ed back to India. I wonder how LHS stock will fare by the time it reaches me.

All that praise for my workstation had this effect: the evil nazar eye struck in the form of termites, borers, white ants, dimags and their grandmothers and aunts  :violent: >:( >:(

Anyway, used that as an excuse to make a better backboard  ;D ;D

After all this, next morning at 6 am, when I went to my workshop, I thought we had an earthquake at night

As  started clearing up, an orange colour streak flashed out from beneath the planes, and bolted out the door!

Foolish feline got stuck there, so in revenge the tomcat created major havoc.

After tidying up

nice workstation sanjay sir.. :)

Thanks Avesh.......hope you mean the "after" and not the "before" pics :D

Sir your new workstation looks pretty clean and beautiful  {:)}
did you build it your self ??

please hare some tips  :)

Yes, self built. Both table & backboard. Very simple, just used MDF board for backboard (no ply this time, as termites are a problem) Important to put 3/4" or thicker spacers between the wall and the board, so you can spay insecticide. Used 1/4" expansion bolts.

Shelves are ply

For table, top should be minimum 3/4" (I used 20 mm) ply. Shelf is 6 mm ply. Legs/frame 1" X 2" wood. Triangular gussets used, wood screws (screwed in, not hammered)

Easy-peasy :D

great sir,  cant even think to make such beauty.. :salute:
i would have wasted some thousand on carpenter.

Spent considerable time last weekend redoing my workstation. Reorganized a lot of stuff and claimed all that space lost in corners...:D
Here are the results.

@Girish sir you and Sanjay sir share same type of work space ethics :)
Looks very neat and organized, and that DIY drill press is eyecatching, any instructions on how to make it?

Thanks Neil,
I have had one very good advice from Sanjay sir, "Whatever you pick up, put it back at the same place, right after *that tool's* task is over. Don't wait to finish the job and then clean your workshop. Never works". This one mantra ensures that the workshop remains clean and a clean workshop amounts to a great building experience.

Here are the plans for the drill press:
http://www.rcindia.org/tools-materials-and-building-techniques/diy-drill-press/

Girish: firstly each item in the shop has to have a pre-defined space & location.

Very true chief  :thumbsup:

nice workshop. :thumbsup:
girishsarwal

thanks laxman

Girish, you forgot to mention you found a lot of missing stuff in the shake-up :D

Thought I'll start a mini competition during the Sweepstakes.
This one is for the member with the messiest workplace and most projects going on simultaneously.
My entry is in the attached pics. Every flat space is occupied!

@sanjayrai55
Request Sanjay Rai sir to be the judge.
(BTW Ashok Baijal's workshop is almost of the same standard as Sanjay sir's...)

very well going sir this is the spirit.i am inspired by you . :hatsoff: :hatsoff: :hatsoff: :hatsoff: :hatsoff:


 {:)} {:)} {:)} :bow: :bow: :bow:

These pictures are invaluable. Have downloaded them. The next time 'someone' screams at me for making a mess - I know exactly what to show her.

where are your pictures VC.  :giggle: :giggle: . You will beat everyone here hands down.  ;D

Her.. Got the point VC sir.
We all have her in every homes in different names but same attitude over planes.

Ashok.P

Sadly, I am now confined to my den. All the mess is restricted there. I don't dare do anything anymore in the withdrawing/living room where more civilised creatures frequent.

Having RC Aunt around may be a good thing.
Or maybe not...

Fortunately, on the rare occasion that she decides to tidy up, she remembers where every single screw, washer, circlip, strip of used sandpaper, even toothpick used last time to mix araldite is.

Have requested her to refrain for the duration of this competition...

By the way your models are taking over the house.... it appears that you need to shift into a bigger home or build yourself a proper Hangar....  Good Going...... Best wishes

"she remembers where every single screw, washer, circlip, strip of used sandpaper, even toothpick used last time to mix araldite is"

 {:)} {:)} {:)} :salute: :salute: :salute:


 :bow: :bow: :bow:

Respect!

p.s. We are 'almost' on the same wicket, getting there ..... slowly............

@VC I am sure you have one of those erstwhile photos when it was one of those days when you were in full form of building with your complete workshop spread out and sanding dust everywhere in living and dining.



PS : My intention is just to record the proof of it to support mam.  :giggle: When you show her these photos she should have your's too to compare. >:D >:D

Hang on - there was one that I had posted while I was building the Hovercrafts. Damned if I can find it now.............

Aaaaah, found it - compare.

What a good boy am I!

On a sombre note, Ma passed away in 2012 and bequeathed her room to me and today I use it as my study. As long as she lived, she would survey the mess in the living room and all the trouble that I took in cleaning the mess up late at night. She would say, "After I am gone, this room is yours. Mess it up as much as you want to, leave the rest of the house neat."

So be it Ma, so be it.

VC I still remember having seen one with you with sanding dust everywhere. ;D thats the ultimate one.

+1 i am witness to that

sandy! what about my room?

Sandy sir,
By mistake i vacuumed the carpet and sofa on Sunday after sanding my Fanjet fuselage.

@Iyyer Sir
I am coming in 2-3 days to act as an add on to your mess...  :giggle:

And this time it will be full fledged attendance from my side unlike I do always...  :)

Not bad, Iyer sir. VCs first picture is pretty spectacular; the second is a disgrace to the hobby ;) :D :D :D

Gusty your situation is no different.  :giggle: The way you keep calling out to mam or Vineet for accessories and tools whenever we are building is a proof to that.  >:D

Your Hanger is no comparison to the above pictures Gusty since its always in an orderly fashion neatly arranged and all the stuff kept in its place (only you don't know where they are  :giggle: )  :giggle: thanks to Varsha Mam and Vineet whenever you are working on one model remaining go back to their respective places automatically without you noticing it...........................

...............aaaaa >:D >:D ....but..... for one rare exceptional occasion for 15 days once in every three years when you have to pack to go to the next station, when you are desperately trying to get the hanger in ALG of 1200sqft, store of 1000sqft, garage of 300sqft, and a hanger at home of 400sqft all at one place at home and struggling hard to get them into one truck with longest possible trailer in which your household goods fits in a small pocket. That's a Scene.

But if I compare that picture then it will be unfair on all of us.  8-) 8-). Other than myself, Param and Shilpa, VC and Mrs VC have also been witness to that.

PS: I am still desperately trying to get hold of that four huge boxes which you accidentally left behind at Shillong.  >:D >:D :giggle: :giggle:

Here's my workplace with the Skysurfer all glued up and ready to fly.( and unfortunately after cleaning up) :(

But considering I'm at Level 1 and you guys are at Level (nth)maybe I will get some grace points >:D

Very interesting and inspiring  ;D ;D

With stalwarts ahead of me, I see no chance of winning :) Though ill remember to take pictures in 'messier' days !

And the proof of a true aeromodellor is that he will fill up all the space you give him, over a period of time, and also , that you'll find something related to RC within a 2 meter radius everywhere in house  ;D

Iyerji, the carpet in your picture reminded me of a very similar one i had in my hobby room. Used to make it so hard to find the small odd parts on it !

Great guys, keep it coming.

Iyer Sir,

If any of those pictures gets out where we are all covered up in sanding dust after a session of rigorous grind down it will be Humour in RC  :giggle:  :giggle:

I still remember mine when myself and one of my colleague while working on a huge 3 mtr foam model outside in the terrace when were busy grinding away huge sheets of HD thermocole after hotwire cutting with electric sander for wing aerofoil with thick cloth masks on our face, Naively oblivious to the fact how the entire area and our self's were getting covered in a layer of foam powder. It was only when Shilpa came back from her errand and when she screamed out seeing our masked faces covered in all white did we realize what jokers we were looking. Even the cloths hanging in the line outside for drying were covered in white layers of foam powder. what a scornful look we got that day.  :rofl:

@ Gaurav Please don't post such Organised Hanger in immaculate condition and try to give us all a complex.  :giggle:  :giggle:

@ Serial Crasher Having been living with the species from Venus all these years, we know for sure your hanger and work space can never get messier enough to win this. It is next to impossible   >:D >:D :giggle: :giggle:. Thanks to that species all our Hanger makes sense whenever they are in good mood.  ;) yeah but there are other times too  :'(  ;D

Schooner kept in a glass cage...

Here is mine, not that messy, But thought worth sharing it..

@sandy only if my mom could hear your words.... ;D she would be super surprised ( shocked actually) .All I would say is Venus residents might still have a few surprises in store >:D

@Mr. Iyer the schooner be "Le Soleil Royal"  ;D

That be no Schooner, methinks. It has multiple decks and a 104 gun battery. It begs to be referred to as a "1st. Rate Ship of the Line" or at least as a Frigate.

A Schooner is much smaller, faster craft, similar to a "Sloop of War''.

SS

Correct me  iam wrong

(a) your models aileron ? you need to look at it for correct mechanical trim abinitio
(b) Have you glued the wing permanently ?

PS
Some observations

This is a rented house
You both like to watch TV in the bedroom, in comfort of your ac
You have either a projector or a big TV

21st century Sherlock Holmes

 ;D

@Sandy
I remember that sight of yours (aka sinner) and the other fellows foam laden face

I know I am disqualified already... goes without saying... :banghead:

you have a complete Lab setup Girish . awesome.

Girish has been mixing up with the wrong kind of people. Highly efficient people who make 24 models in a year and who possess immaculately clean and meticulously maintained work spaces.

I am pretty much adult(e)rated with cleanliness now VC ... :giggle: :giggle: ... Those 24 x 7 gents suggest no more kidding in the workshop... :bow:

@VC true that !  :salute:

@Gutsy

a) will probably need to put the servos in neutral position and then adjust ailerons before maiden . Is that what u meant ?
B) not glued the wings still need to sand down the carbon fibre rod to stick in the wings. Was thinking of using a fibre glass tape so can be opened if required. Any suggestions?

Sherlock's deduction is not 100% correct . Adulteration of the 21st century I guess ;D
Between curious explain how this was deduced . >:D

@Serial - do not glue the wings, cos it will become difficult to transport the surfer. Use the fibre tape its the best.

Here's my mess

@xantos sir,
Scene from below the flight deck of USS Enterprise?

Can see the contributors to this thread breaking into two distinct groups:
1. Competitors
2. Judges!

Nandan

One of the few who has seen this so called mess of yours, wish one has a privilege of such a mess

SS
Which part is not 100% correct ? i will tell you my watson's logic  ;)

@Gutsy: Rented house and big tv are correct .The rest is not. Now your logic  >:D

Other than the Mess what always amazes me about us aeromodellers is ; no matter how bad or big Your Mess - Only you can find your way around it !
The Messer always always is the only one who can find that one small little part thingee in one big huge pile of parts

Amen to that   :iagree: ;D

@Xantos is that a turbine on a glider. do you have any videos of it flying?

Ashok.P

And the winner is!!  ;D ;D

Sometimes I let them sleep on my bed so that they dont face the natures fury (read cold and dust)  :giggle:

johnywalker8pm throwing a royal challenge, are you?

 :giggle:

Of course not VC sir.. ;)

with a flat bottom its very useful to put some weight on foam builds like this below one  ;D ;D

This has diluted this thread somewhat. Merge ?

http://www.rcindia.org/rc-general-topics/post-your-workstation-here/ (http://www.rcindia.org/rc-general-topics/post-your-workstation-here/)

yes! merge

@anwar sir,
The earlier thread was for taking pride in your workstation.

This one was for letting people peep into the real you  ;)

'Post your workstation here' takes the entire punch away from 'It's a MESS'

Without 'It's a MESS' maybe we would never have had posts like ankurkaul17's 'sometimes i let them sleep on my bed...' (A potentially winning caption)

Perhaps you could consider demerging (maybe by editing some posts)

Ankur Kaul, Esq., has my vote too. That caption is a winner.

Yaaay  ;D ;D What do I win ?  :giggle: . That day I worked till 4 am and was too tired to clear the bed. I slept on the floor that day.  ;D

Here is the mess I created today

today morning started building plane & completed by evening.. here is my workstation(it is also my room....  :giggle: :giggle: :giggle: :giggle: ;D ;D ;D)

Bump.
@anwar sir
@rcpilotacro
The merger seems to have killed off the 'its a mess' thread'

That's my work station...  This is minus the two Gliders I have i.e. Orange Box a 6ft rc glider and Guppy a 5ft RC glider.  Well my models are scratch built.... presently all are of Thermocol with Balsa for Tailplane and Fin...... and maybe a times the plans also have been enlarged by me.

@ SC what a beautiful ship on the bakground.
@ rcpilotacro sir i mean sherlock holmes There are others too

@ xantos sir : is that a  mess

@anwar sir,
@rcpilotacro sir,
Is it possible to restart 'It's a mess' as a seaparate thread from 'post your workstation'?
One year has passed, and i do think it addressed a different angle!

Well I dont have a spare table per say, but I keep my stuff packed in boxes ( arranged accordingly too ) and when the time comes, ALL MY ROOM , especially the BED ( after i put a work-sheet on top ) becomes a workshop :D

and yes If i wish to sleep at night ( which I do every alternate day ) all the stuff is 'Shifted ' at the floor and next morning everything comes back

Will post an image of what exactly happens the next time i open my stuff :D

Here is mine, taken some weeks before.

(http://www.rcindia.org/rc-general-topics/post-your-workstation-here/?action=dlattach;attach=707558;image)

Nice...

Perhaps this year, along with Sweepstakes,
Anwar sir can consider awarding these titles:
1. Best workstation (contenders sanjayrai55, ashok baijal etc)
2. Most messy (contenders yours truly, and others like me)

No prizes for category 2. Only the honour of Most Messy!

I suspect there may be many contenders...
(Eg, akhilzid, who has recently done some great work with a Tx, but has a mess in his room...)

:iagree:  with Iyer sir :)

Also glad to compete for category 2 :giggle:

Here's mine!  ;D built it recently!

Sooraj hope u remember mine...its worst when my wife is not at home

Spent some time last two weekends to move my workstation to a larger space and reorganize

Very nice!  :thumbsup:

Now build more planes  :giggle: :giggle:

I bet mine is the cleanest cause if it wasn't ..my parents would have had abandoned me till now :giggle: ;D

Cool setup Girish.

After relocating to Bangalore, I shifted to a flat where space was at a premium. So my hobby stuff got squeezed out to one of the balconies. The hobby room is therefor narrow and longish. It took a lot of imagination and space saving procedures to build a comfortable work space. A video tour is below
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDeAJ-mE9hI

The tools are mostly arranged on sliding drawers

Wow, that's some serious space management.
Good Job :thumbsup:

Very well laid out Mr. Baijal.  :thumbsup:

Thank you Sandy sir

Sanjay sir, the Supra Fly is underway, and the larger space allows better repair of existing ones.

I see an airbrush compressor Baijal Sir.  That's one neat workstation.

Most excellent, Ashok-ji!  :hatsoff:

Really well organized, with optimal utilization of space.

Now you just need one more item - some Corro planes  :giggle:

Thanks Bhavesh Girish, Col and Sanjay ji. Managing in a limited space was challenging but the end result was worth the effort I now have lots of storage and workspace with every item having a space earmarked. Incidently I had to dump a few models which were not my favourites to make space.

Yes Col,its a compressor for my airbrush. However waiting for the water filter to arrive as the vendor from whom I had bought the compressor swiped it out before sending it.

Sanjay ji, I had tried Coro models in the 90s. India Hobby Centre used to sell Coro kts. One free flight coro Cessna is still lying with me. Planning to convert it to electric RC sometime soon. Coro is a very nice material but first I need to find a store which sells it. Finding a parking space near the city market is a nightmare. Once I lay my hands on the stuff then I would certainly be building a few Coro models.

Great workstation there, Ashok sir. very well maintained.
What i mostly admire about your age seniors people (including my father) is your discipline and Management.

Thanks Manoj

Ashok sir....that's an absolutely stunning workshop !

Thanks Bmblb

Where did you say you live Sir? Maybe I can break into and steal away those balsa stack!! :giggle:

I'll pm my address, but then I will have to remain awake 24*7 to guard my stock  :o Most of it is old stock collected when LHS were not there. Now the prices have crashed and balsa is no longer a scarce item. Need to build a few models before I get too old for the hobby.  ;)

Hahaha.. I agree the drought of balsa before the LHS'es then & now; things have changed radically! Keep it coming sir,  :)

Ashok sir, you are ne'er too old for making planes just take Iyer sir as an example :giggle:

A simple way to increase shelving rack capacity. Earlier was 16" depth, now 30"
