I don’t want to make the mistakes I did modeling the last time i tried. Key mistakes?

• Overshooting my capabilities
• No space to actually do the work

I knew I’d tried too go too big, too complex, too soon. Probably more than I could handle, no matter how much practice I got. Gotta start small, have a real work space.

So, I purchased a workstation of sorts at a local coffee shop / gift shop that I instantly fell in love with. It looks like one piece, but it’s actually at least two pieces of furniture cobbled together. The bracing on the bottom is in place backwards and there’s a nameplate for a boiler brand on the front that looks old timey, but isn’t in any way connected with the table / workstation.

That said, it’s a decent sized surface that I can get some lights on and there are lots of drawers and cabinets to put things in. Seems just the thing to get started with!
