The Best Workbench in the World

Lots of people from across the world have distant links to the United Kingdom, many even claim to hail from Scotland. As I am lucky enough to now live and work in Scotland this this leads to lots of questions and requests for pictures of the lovely place that I now call home. So I decided what better than a page dedicated to my home and what I think is one of the greatest workbenchs in the world. Layout space may be a premium but nature provides one of the worlds greatest locations to work on my model railroad interests.

So where is home? – well Home now is Dysart in the Kingdom of Fife in Scotland.

well heck where is that?? well it is on the north bank of the fourth, just north of Edinburgh,

The village in which I live is called Dysart, it is along the coast between Dunfermline and St Andrews (yes that Golf and University City). It has quite a claim to fame, Major Pitcairn the Royal Marine Officer (Info) who was involved in the first battles of the American War of Independance was born in the village and the village has been used for filming of the TV series Outlander.

So lets look at the village:

So what makes this the best workbench in the world, well when its not raining here i the view I have:

I also have my two best friends who help me with my Modelling … sometimes, we have Bingo & Dabber. Dabber loves a sound equipped loco and will sit and watch a Geep idle for at least 5 minutes lol thats along time in dog years.

Here is number one railfan Dabber:

and his mischievous older brother Bingo, who distrupts modelling by barking or standing on my sholders.
