Maybe I have 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 Orkney, Scotland 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 Burray in Orkney, Scotland.

So what makes this the best workbench in the world, well when its not raining and I can work outside these are the views I enjoy:

• 

• 

• 

I also have my four legged best friend who helps me with my modelling … well sometimes, my Bedlington terrier 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:
