Since I have a lift for my real cars in my Shop, I thought it would be nice to have also one for my 1/18 scale model cars.

But then I thought why not also a shop for the 1/18 scale cars.
So here is a video from my newly build shop.

I have no words for that video. Your posts are very hard to top, but I think you just outdid yourself! Just love love love that video and the whole airboxer garage!

Thanks for the nice comments. Except the car and the 3 guys, I did all the items with the 3D printer. The wall cabinets are made from wood.
Thanks

I was waiting for the pull back drone-style shot to show the overall size. Well done!

Sometimes it's the little things. I have two Echo Plus speakers on my work bench (with a subwoofer underneath) for a pretty good stereo sound in the garage. It won't win any audio awards, but sounds better than the Emerson 8-track of my youth. My only issue was the speakers took up counter space and always seemed a little disorganized with the cord wadded up behind it. So today I designed and printed a solution that gets the units off the counter and offers a clean and tidy look. I'm weirdly satisfied with the result, just need to print another one now.

It looks good and it accomplishes the task quite well too. (I did find myself looking for the push handle underneath the shelf to dispense hand cleaner ... )
Amazing skills, design, engineering and technique for all that you are conjuring out of what seems like nothing! It's also fascinating to see how many others are adapting and becoming proficient building useful and otherwise unobtainable or difficult to find things.
