Your workshop :)

I will send mine tomorrow :) Nice idea!

LOL

As promised my (2) desk(s).
One for watches and one for electronics.

Hmm, but I am pretty sure @hek was talking about 'space' and not 'size'.
I agree, size does not matter but space is really really helpful to keep things organised.
@hek Yes, and this is a corner of our 'hobby room' that is 'only' 70m2 :)

@marceltrapman OMG! That's so clean and organized!

@Yveaux Marcel is a bit swiss like as it appears except for the hanging electricity cables from the roof ;-)

Actually I am Dutch living in Germany but you are correct, I like a clean desk (the desk I use for my work no less).
The loose cables irritate me but I have to take the time and figure out how to solve that nicely.
Talking about obsessive, when you look at picture 2 and 3 you will see that the white cable on the floor is clipped to the wall ;) -
@marceltrapman I saw it, but alas computer and cables are synonims... my desk is more like @hek one, no room... or plenty of cables...
What kind of watch do you clean thi way ? I've not seen the oscillator measuring tool for automatic watches ;-)
z-wave - Vera -> Domoticz
rfx - Domoticz <- MyDomoAtHome <- Imperihome
mysensors -> mysensors-gw -> Domoticz -

Wow, how did you recognise it?
It is not only automatic but all mechanical watches btw.
I clean (and if not too difficult I sometimes repair/maintain) all watches but my real interest is with mechanical watches.
I am intrigued by how small things can be and accomplish so complex tasks.I have attended a couple of workshops to get to know hand wound and automatic watches. Next step is watches with more complexities (like stopwatch etc.).
Fulltime Servoy Developer
Parttime Moderator MySensors boardI use Domoticz as controller for Z-Wave and MySensors (previously Indigo and OpenHAB).
I have a FABtotum to print cases. -

@marceltrapman this is why I called you a swissman ;-) (hint: the UV machine and some other tools) but they speak french in the clock and watch industry in the Juras. I myself have tenth of mecanical ones, but they are not expensive enough to go to official repair... one day maybe when I'll have plenty of time...

I started writing in @Yveaux thread but didnt want to go too far off topic so; here is a small presentation of myself; you guys could write something short about yourselves too!
I've been involved in lots of project here and there, I have done some minor hacking of protocols, programs (softice, olledbg, IDA) and even embedded systems (mostly linux). But it is just for fun for myself. Never 'destroyed' anything. I know a little about many things, but not really good at anything at the same time.. :) I know electronics too, Not much analog but digital is easy (as long as the frequency doesn't get too high.. Sigh!)
@Yveaux You seam to do a lot of fun stuff too.. :) -

OK here it is:
I am an entrepreneur (or self employed if you like) in sales training, coaching and (interim) management. Next to that I do something completely different and that is developing Java Plug-ins for the Servoy platform (and a bit of Objective C, Xojo and Python). It is sort of a hobby that I made my job.
The rest is hobby.
I like nice watches and from there I grew into what I described a few posts back.
I started installing a few security cams earlier this year, found that the step into domotica was not too difficult and here I am building a hobby around MySensors and electronics. And soon 3D printing... -
My temporary setup until the oldest is moving out :x so rooms of the others can be swapped and i can start build my lair. Not much, but it does the job. Low WAF factor because it now is in the view of the main living. It will eventually be a relax space. The desks are just quick builds and all my stuff are put somewhere else so a LOT of walking around while prototyping etc. is needed. And as you can see of the chair, the cat loves to play parrot on my shoulders.

Dutch, Engaged and stepfather of three and one of my own, have a dog and cat. I've been mostly involved in back-end systems (Navigation company, financial/educational institutions and telecommunications) with system administration, programming and test labs. Always done some electronics but since last year and a half dived deeper into it and started with home automation with my best friend who I know for 16 years now.

I could really use a bookshelf or something to organize things better. Those transparent storage boxes are pretty great though, if I can only get them off the floor. That wonky desk is an old IKEA Jerker (v1 circa 1999-2001). I have a v2 now for the computer setup. Great desks, long since discontinued, even if birch wasn't the smartest color in retrospect.
3x30W 4000K CFL tubes. I use them for photography and as grow lights in the spring (with different fixtures).
Notice the big bag of Ebay envelopes.
What are my chances of winning the man cave competition? ;-) I guess I'm disqualified since I live alone anyway. Haha.

Well in the sport of things, here is my 'work space'. Sorry about the quality, phone camera and all... Also don't know how to imbed pics.
