Portable work surface?

I do not have the problem with a stairway to a basement (would be nice though) but I bought a three shelf "tool" or "mail room" cart. I attached a strip outlet and filled the trays with stuff needed to work on the layout. I just roll the cart to the work area and have all tools close at hand. For kit building, I have a plywood deck that fits inside the top tray that creates a desk suitable for off layout modeling. I also use the 4 and 6 drawer plastic storage bins, one for paints and airbrush, another for scenic materials, another for electrical components, etc. All if these "carts" roll under the layout keeping the space uncluttered and ready for train operations.
