My incredible wife got me this compressor for my birthday in the early nineties. I don't use it much, but it has provided the air for a few rocket paint jobs. |
| Pegboard lines the southwest corner of the shop. The pre-painted
white pegboard is great. It makes it much easier to see in the dark
corners than the regular brown pegboard.
With its 10' ceiling, the garage accomodates a high shelf nicely. The 10-speed is a 1982 Schwinn LeTour with about 100 miles on it. In the pic below is my stash of HPR tubes. I got some big plans :) Highlighted in yellow is Dave Schaefer's original test glide X-30 model. It's in pretty bad shape, but I have some plans for it. (The 38mm tube opening is not part of the X-30.) |

After tripping over junk one too many times, I finally put a floor
in my attic for storage. Here's the entrance. It has a fold-out
ladder. Unlike in the movies, this ladder has never popped me in
the mouth.
The lights are some cheap desk lamps I mounted on the ceiling for shooting photos. They're well clear of my head, but within easy reach for when I need to adjust them. |
One additional shelving unit resides on the west wall.
Those are my rocket range boxes on top.

| For cloning and up/down-scaling, it's helpful to create
artwork references. Here are some Big Bertha shots gleaned from Ninfinger.
Being handily placed on the shop wall, they provide a little dressing up for the shop, too. This artwork got lots of use when I was finishing this rocket. |
