Ill post a pic up of my "little shop"

Almost there. I'm no carpenter. It just needs something. I'll add some stickers.

Green Hornet: It's good to see that somebody still has their xxx4. All my buddies sold theirs off.

I just gota find the cord to connect the camera to the comp to upload the pics

My RC corner of the laundry room. At least it's close to a window and a slop sink. More mess in the garage, but it's all inside for the winter.

Here is the trailer the I use as a pit trailer. A buddy and I went together and bought it to haul around to races.

thats pretty sweet

wow...i think you win....jw where do u live? that would be awesome to have at a bash as a like workbench fixing station and by what i see is it also airconditioned/heated? so that would be nice....

Man I hate you LakeMaxx!! OK I don't hate you just jealous of the trailer and the Killer Rc lineup you got. lol!


Lakemaxx is from Lake of the Ozarks Missouri.

Thanks!

Yeah, like six said, I'm from Lake of the Ozarks, Mo. We got lucky with the buy. I found the trailer used with everything in it (shelves, benches, seating, A/C, Etc) and picked it up for less than what you can find a used trailer with nothing in it.

yeah that trailer is sweet. when he brought that to the showdown/oktoberfest in st. louis thats where most people spent there time!! i know i was in there alot.

Now that is kewl.
Here is mine about a month ago but since has changed.
I have an 8 foot bench in there and some posters, Pc desk and an old
Microwave stand. I got killer speakers to hook my laptop up to and crank the tunes in there.
Wireless internet also. A great view out to the street to see if anyone is comming.
Soon shelves in there and then set up all my Legos in there too for sale on my store.

This is kinda going to be the hobby room for us all.

Attention bench owners !!!

Sunday's Menard's ad had 4' long plastic pit tables for $20. Good price on something we all need, right !!!

Heres what im working with, its a work in progress.

Hey how is that dremel with the Flex Shaft OV? Does the flex shaft have variable RPM or is it only cabable of one speed? My wife bought me a durabuilt Rotary with flexshaft cheap from Target (18.99 on sale) but I saw a Dremel XPR 400 kit with flexshaft for 75 bucks at menards and was thinkin maybe I should get that instead. Thats if I can convince her to let me spend the xtra cash

The speed is controlled on the main body and the ya its variable RPM. I love the damn thing!

I have the XPR400 also. It's ok but it doesn't run very slowly if you want real slow speed. I've never hooked up the flexshaft. Ususally I can get it done with the tool itself, but I have never had to work on anything in a confined area.

I was checkin Dremels website out and they had different diameter Flexshafts(1/2",3/4" etc) and they had a footpedal you can use with the tool and the flexshaft to finely tune the RPM on either. Which I thought was pretty cool.

My little work area is in the corner of my basement next to the heater!!! Nice and toasty.

yet again maybe its just me being new to rc but is there a special tool for removing the hollow ball connetors at the end of tie rods and push rods and if so where can i get one?

Shinner, 4 words....

four foot shop light!!!!

5 words, It's was a Free lamp. Dont hate on my lamp!!

ok, free is cool, apologies to the lamp. seriously, Menards, $9, shop lamp. your eyes will thank you.

Ya, i will have to take a look into that. I actually just put all my stuff downstairs about 4 days ago. I use to work on the dining room table, so im just getting moved in soo to speek.

Joey, nope no special tools. I usually just snip the plastic around the metal thing and it releases it. Usually the only time you need to pop one of those out is when you break the plastic end so cutting it up doesn't really matter
