Hey Jess, that's an inspiring idea!
Now you've got considering creating a painting/customizing setup at my workdesk in my garage. I don't do enough hands on stuff these days, but the space would really be perfect and I'm getting the floor repainted this week with an industrial grade epoxy covering, and if I empty out some of the drawers and cabinets for storage, add some worklights in there under the cabinets, it'll be pretty tight. Oh, and I'll need a new chair. A couple of questions for the pros out there. Would paint end up flying everywhere, especially on my white cabinets? I am a clean freak and wouldn't want it to look like grafitti land. Also, if I do this, anyone have recommendations on paints, equipment, airbrushes, mag subscriptions, etc needed for a good 101 setup for a beginner?

Thanks

Congrats, Jesse! I'm looking forward to seeing some of your paint-slinging handiwork before long!

Well, that's over as of right now, I've finally commandeered a section of our living room as a work station, and pulled my airbrushes and tools out of mothballs, so that I can build and paint my own kits .. I'll be building a spray box this weekend.



So look out Saul, Danno, Vince and Boonie .. cause I'm going to be asking a WHOLE LOT of questions in the coming weeks!

Nice setup! Someday, I need to make one for myself - I'm still painting on top of the dryer in our laundry room....

Oh yeah - paint gets everywhere, no matter how careful you try to be. I'm a neat freak, myself, and I had to force myself to just "accept it", LOL!!
