Where do you pit at home
 

Our lass is doing her nut because ive got car bits everywhere :o and actually its getting on my nerves aswell because i can't find nothing.:D
so ive decided to do out the out house benches etc so i can put all my car gear in there, and it will be my escape room :o so is your lass/mam dad doing your head in about your gear, and where do you tinker with your cars ;)

My stuff is always left in its hauler bags, and cardboard boxes for the spares and bits which i don't take to the track. They're all left behind/under my bed.

When I need to work on my cars, I will lay a towel out in the kitchen and do it there. if its a long job, and it overflows to another day of work then I still put everything away but the half assembled car is left on a towel on the floor in the spare room.

I put a towel out in my room and do everthing there. I tidy most of my stuff away before i go to bed incase step on something sharp in the mourning...:D

you want to see Garrys bedroom :o omg its a hazard :D

I do it where ever I like, no misses and no mam to nag me.... only the kids and they are used to it... be surprised how much room 4 peoples cars and gear takes up.... then spraying too....

I pit in the kitchen, cellar and living room - all concurrently.

i built a shed out in the back garden with a pit table built in ,
has lights and heating ..

its my get away place ..

Erlier i was in the master bedroom..but my other half didnt like it...i ws passed to laundry room...like a dog =)

4 cars to hold in perfect condition..

got my garage converted to an office as i work mainly from home, well it was an office to start with now 50% of it is workshop! includes workbench with power and light, shelving for my cars/heli's. im still a crap driver but at least the mr's doesnt bend my ear about stuff everywere :D

Sounds a great idea! Bet there's atleast a radio in there too. Thats what id do if kitchen became an issue, one of those sheds with a sun-terrace and a rocking chair.

Erm, in my games room, obviously :D

at the moment I have a small desk in the spare room, this is about to turn into a 6ft work bench :)


maybe as soon as tomorrow, but within the next few weeks hehe, non of this packing away lark!

but of course !!! im aiming for a telly soon to :D

mines in my shack...its ace...although im messy! lol....ill put pics up soon!

My home... its a pit!

and tht car of yours!

I have a whole spare bedroom room dedicated to my rc cars...has its own en-suit aswell!!!!

was soldering the other night and the solder irons end fell off into my box of tyres, burn straight through and onto the carpet... nearly set the house of fire!!!

Dangerous stuff this rc racing!!!

ye same here total use of the spare bedroom

I use 1/2 the through lounge

I have the garage, i put extra lighting up in there, i have an "L" shape at the back of the garage the back wall for electric and the side part of the L for nitro, its messy!!

I also have a 42" plasma on the wall to keep me warm:D but when i get shut of the mrs i thing it will all move inside with me and ill put the R6 on the balcony off the living room:D


Note: Must get rid of her indoors;)

I keep all the stuff in the porch and use the dining table :D mam doesnt like it but she darnt touch it incase she breaks something so i win :D Dad doesnt care less, he should be he knows i should be in the garage if it wernt for his crap so he lets me be.

Wouldn't it be better riding the R6, I would keep my bike in the hallway if it would fit. I have no missus to nag me, 'cept some blokes wife who comes round quite often, but she doesn't nag ;)

Alas, I have my spare room, a home made rack behind the door to keep the cars/trucks on, and a "desk" to work on, with drawers to keep stuff in, a halogen desk lamp (£4 from wilkinsons :D) and a lot of floor space.

lol!!!

Yes but its january and the north east of england:(

I built shed, fitted with kitchen worktops,lots of lights, heat, tv, radio, It's my space.....no kids....no wife:rolleyes:. But I don't leave the cars or radio gear in there, leave them in the house so they are safe and insured when I'm not home

40 foot X 20 foot heated garage, with a seperate secure dedicated model lock up,(also houses my Trials motor bike) with acess to compressor, hot/cold water, digi TV and lots of peace from her indoors

this line just keeps coming up time and time again:D

My kinda shed :D

In the cupboard, dont even touch my stuff, too much effort.

Where ever it gets put after a meeting lol!!

Most of it lives in the conservatory but I do all my work in the lounge .... well it's the only room with a plasma and cable ...

As for the other half she's a gem ... and the racing kit is the least of her worries!!!
She actually cleans my car if it's too muddy as a while back I absolutely wrecked the bathroom trying to get a Pred clean before it set to concrete, after that she figures it's better if she does it ... :)

I pit in my garage it has a radio extra lighting overhead storage and a settie. But i aint got a heater yet. But i have alots of room for all my stuff. and a big table my uncle kicked from MFI

A

I have my own little corner in amongst my daughters redundant toys in the garage. Tucked away behind the shower-room its a bit cramped but at least its attached to the house.:)
Attachment 1721

Flash Git
 

You flash git mark .. Mines only 15 ft by 9 ft Workbench,table,comfy chair,heating/power/hifi no tv but my have old laptop wireless which talks to my 500gb hard drive indoors with all the films tv on i ever need/shelving and a secure cabinet for all the dear stuff. oh and my little motorbike has a little spot. Its only 8.1ft long 3ft wide 1800cc :o

I threw all the clothes out of the walk-in wardrobe onto the floor where i prefer them and converted the wardrobe to a little rc cupboard.

The entire wardrobe/room is full at the moment with models and various stuff though.

God,,,
everyone keep going on about getting away from 'er indoors. I can't!!

I only have the living room table to do any car work on, due to the shed being full of shells and paint.:) But even then, I can't get away from her cos she come out to moan about how long I'm spending in there!?:wtf:

Mind you, at the moment the whole house is full of bodyshells and she only moans a couple of times........per hour!
:D

But yes the dining table is my pit....and sometime she even lets me leave things out until the next morning.:) when its not being worked on it just sits under the stairs in hauler bag and polybutler.

I have put up a 10'x8' Shed at the back of the garage.
No room left in garage. 3 Quad bikes and a moto-x bike are kept in there.
Got kicked out of the house by the wife. Don't get nagged at any more.
The shed has a few creature comforts in there. TV, HI-FI and a Gas Heater. Have insulated the inside panels to keep the heat in. A bit chilly out there at the moment.
Do you think that wiring the TV to the Sky box in the house is going a bit OTT.

At home? I just do it at work!

:p jk, although a lot of other wrenching goes on there.

What you bunch of wimps need is sorting out!! Ive gone the other way and built the wife a little shed with no tv, radio or heating so SHE can do her ironing washing and stuff what woman do in there and leave me in peace. I let her out once in a while to vacuum the house and make me tea tho.

























ps best not let her see this she will probably kill me

class daz, i knew i could improve mine somehow!!:D

Moved into a new house with an extra room seven months ago. I let my wife decide on the decor of the whole house but kept that 1 room for me to "decorate".
