Friends, modelers, countrymen, lend me your ears - er, eyes!
I should know better than to do this because every time I start to trumpet some success, disaster strikes. Be that as it may, the addition to our house is muddling along, and so is what will become my hobby room.
I like it. Very airy, tons of natural light. 
Very nice. Where’s the bar gonna go?
Nice! DRY IT IN BEFORE THE RAINS START!!! Just saying…
Wonderful, Raj! Just cried tears of joy!
At this point ventilation when spray painting in your paint booth will be easy to accommodate…
It is really convenient to clean your work area at this point. All you need is a leaf blower and 30 seconds.
It’s looking good Fred. Glad to see it progressing. I can almost smell the styrene and model glue now along with the sound of an electric train running in the background. 
Looking forward to the next update.

Thanks men!
Today’s progress.
Planning which window the spray booth goes into.
I am keeping all of those 8’ x 2’ concrete forms framed with 2x4s for bench work. Unfortunately the tops are OSB. Same thing in the house we sold last year. Cover the tops with polyurethane. Might do it again. Anybody have a better ideas?
Very nice Fred – if the kitchen’s within reach you could run a tunnel line straight through & get your snacks & drinks delivered by rail without leaving the workbench 
Forgive me for imagining the worst, hopefully you’ll install adequate fire detection/alarms. I was immediately reminded of a Dutch (?) modelmaker who published photos in a modelling mag several years ago of his free-standing man-cave after it burned to the ground along with his entire stash, finished models & materials. No fire detection/prevention, just a pile of ashes/rubble left & it wasn’t even insured.
Glue a piece of Formica on top. Route the edges and you are done. Nice smooth cleanable surface.
I would check the whereabouts his wife was that day. 
Moving along nicely
I like that idea. Glues, paint, and solvents have done a number on the old desk I use. I’d also suggest if using the formica or other solid surface, try to get a plain solid color, particularly white so that pieces don’t get lost in the design.
At a minimum, a sheet of Melamine covered particleboard is a decent benchtop. -No where close to me carries HPL (Formica) sheets anymore, but the big orange box store always has the 3/4" melamine sheets. It cleans pretty easy, but does scratch easier than the HPL.
You may have time to order some Formica before you tackle the desk. Sometimes cabinet or counter top places might have some left overs. I will say it also makes excellent cabinet door faces. We had custom maple cabinets made for the kitchen. Sprayed in white with a laquear based paint. After 7 years the edges are splitting and cracking. That would never have happened with Formica faced cabinets. So much for “upgrading” our kitchen cabinets. My computer table had been my hobby table for years. As I look at it, it could have been installed a month ago as far as wear and tear goes.
