Your work area

[Tom]

My desk (what you see earlier in the thread) is my home office desk. I run a company that trains locomotive engineers and trainmen. It is also my living room, as I live in a one bedroom apartment right now (the economy is in the toilet as you all know and the first place MOST companies go to make cuts is safety and training). So, crammed into a tiny desk in a tiny spot and we rarely use the living room anyway, Alicia (Fiance) and my best friend both talked me into turning the living room into a home office. Her desk was a little deal in the kitchen, and was under a window. She's ALWAYS cold. So last winter, I got tired of hearing her complain about being cold and roasting me out with the heater, so I "temporarily" moved her computer to the other side of my desk, so she faces me now. She liked it so much, she offered a deal: I can have her desk for a modeling area if she could stay at my big desk where she's at. So, for large projects, I use my modeling desk with all my tools and paints set up there, but I have a self healing mat and a few tools at my big desk to do small projects and repairs as well. So I use both depending on what it is. Assemble an HO vehicle kit like an 18 wheeler and detail it, I use the big desk. For big projects like locomotives and structures, I'll use te big desk. If it is something Alicia will help with, like I am working on building a structure and she's painting details on it, we'll do it at the big desk.

Just depends I guess.
