Craft My Model / The hobby workbench
Small parts.
Big sense of
finished.
A place to choose the next kit, sort the little details and get something proudly onto the shelf.
Measure. Make. Try again. That’s the hobby.
Tools for the thinking part
Set up your next good session.
The scale bench
Convert real dimensions or resize an existing scaled plan, with units shown.
02 / Plan itYour printable build card
Record the kit, options and next steps before the first part leaves the sprue.
03 / Picture itThe finish finder
Choose a visual direction and get a finish-testing checklist.
What are you building?
Three subjects.
Different decisions.
From the bench notebook
Before the lid comes off.
A first kit you can finish
Choose the subject, assembly style and scope before buying equipment.
Paint notesPlan the finish before the paint
A manageable palette and a compatible test piece beat a drawer of guesses.
Marking notesMake room for the markings
Check versions, placement and product instructions before using decals.
Display notesA small scene with a clear idea
Plan footprint, scale and one visual story before buying scenery.
Leave a note for your next session.
“Test-fit the next two parts” is easier to return to than “finish model”. Give tomorrow’s you a small, clear starting point.
