Hey there I thought everyone's did, without the layout bench work, there wouldn't be any place to work! LOL
Yep. I've got a lift off board . . .

Yep, must confess.... I have a work station in an old roll top drafting table, works great. When I am in need to stop, before finished with something, I can roll the top closed and on-going work is undisturbed. But, this and my bench, is in another room, downstairs, from the layout. So, a lot of work on the engines and rolling stock occurs on one corner of the layout, where the "test track" is closest and easily available.

When I was building my layout I used any "Flat surface"I could find including the layout itself!
I used my work bench in my shop area and my "hobby" bench. Now that it is finished I use mainly the "hobby" bench for small projects.

my MDF top workbench loop can be seen here, I've since added a "yard" on the far end (to the right) - transitioned to FastTrack from O-27.
I basically use the section between the two loops as my workspace for train or non-train projects, the far right side now is committed to the "yard" though!
