I love that paint booth Dude.
It looks like MDF, but what's that white material?

lol mcleod

It´s a sort of plywood thats form pressured. It¨s usually used as flooring on car trailers so it¨s smooth on one side and some pattern on the other side.

It¨s just painted on the inside but its missing some holders etc that I were planning on adding in there.

In my defense, I haven't acquired nearly the collection of tools and paints that most have. Some day I plan on having a bit of a mess of my own! LOL

I sit at that one for the builds and the one behind it in the corner for painting.
How big should I make it Lee?

Oh Wait.... (insert light bulb smiley...)
I should loose the desk and the pant booth and build a bench.
It could be like 10 feet long.....

Hey everyone
Just joined your forum a few days ago, thought this would be a good first post other then the intro page. I've always enjoyed seeing others work areas so i thought i'd share mine. Still a work in progress, need to add more shelving someday and clean up the pegboard a bit. I love the barber stool my wife got me, very comfortable and easy to roll around. The spray booth is on casters and I roll it up to my work area when needed. There is also an exhaust fan i hook up to the window. Probably my biggest job was getting the sink plumbed in. The room was rough plumbed with sewer but I had to bring in hot and cold water.

Hey thanks Paul, I kept meaning to ask you about your work lights but kept forgetting to ask.
Awesome little space Matthew, that desk is completely perfect. What brand is it, do you remember?
