Creating a workshop

One of our regular customers has recently built himself a workshop to house his vast collection of model making accessories and to have a place to work on making his models other than their bedroom!!!

I have put below some of the pictures and also a piece about the construction of his 'Man Cave'.

"I'm extremely happy, i used to do my modelling in the bedroom , then i started using the airbrush and she went mad lol, but it was all part of the plan to get the new man cave built, it did take a while from start to finish due to being less abled than most, but when i got the cave built and started moving stuff in i thought i was going to have an add on built lol, im actually back to model building but still moving things around inside lol, i will get it sorted eventually."
