      Tim, the turntable is a relic from my youth, is still working. It was in the custody of my parents till we got that new house. It rested almost 40 years in a cardboard box in my dad's cellar! The amplifier is still working too so I just need to buy a new couple of hi-fi speakers as the old ones, home made by a friend of mine, are too big for that room. My wish list is long :smiling:.
      Hope to listen to my old vinyl albums again soon (mainly classical music, but not only, and as aged as the hi-fi set).

        No probs from me Andrea, I love vinyl. I have an extensive record collection generated over forty years, and a good hi-fi system to play them on. There are some good bargains to be had on speakers, so I’d say buy some and go for it. Might be worth having the turntable serviced and a new cartridge fitted though, the suspension on the old cartridge has probably aged beyond usefulness and could damage your vinyl collection.

          Here is my room of joy & solace. For me a place where I can enjoy my life.

          I also sleep in this room & pull the bed from under the shelves every night. It is a total haven.

          Just to say that I take time off to sit with my wife, Pauline, which is also a haven of delight. As I love her above all my models--- just ---(joking) :smiling6:

          :rolling: To add-- this is tidy as shown before I go to bed. Tidy about every 30 mins when working. Yes it is.:rolling:

            Laurie,Sir.....
            Obviously your working area is meticulously organised, and an absolute gem of a playground
            But I'd like to express my interest in that Afghan Dio,any chance of some more pics of that?... I'm having an bit of a love in for Helicopters myself at the moment.... And you've got some cracking specimens there by the look of it!!

                    You wouldn't say that Laurie if you saw what I wade through to find a few square inches of building space on my bench.........just can't keep it clean. I do manage to get all my tools back in their respective places at the end of the day. I suspect it is because I roll into the next build before finishing the present one and so there is never a break in activity. Rick H.

                      Well Rick,
                      I ain't got no Tidy bench,(let alone an EXTREMELY TIDY !! ) one!!
                      So I can't really comment.....
                      ..... HOWEVER,in my opinion,I think Laurie should be on said committee at least!!
                      .......
                      .....BTW, Having seen the "Mugs" bit there..... Can I apply for the mantle of "Mug 1"?!.....I reckon I have all the credentials to fulfill that position!!

                          People. If you put your model weapons away in all the right places.

                          After finishing sanding put your sanders in the carousel.

                          Put your morton in it's place your tweezers in the tweezer conservatory.

                          Not kidding lay your hands on exactly what you want.

                          I used to be a "Lionel" Messie but it works you will be happier save time by being "[COLOR=rgb(226, 80, 65)]Tidy[/COLOR]"
