    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.

          I enjoyed perusing everyone's work benches. :)

          I have a number of other (non electronic) projects already in the works, but when I complete those I'll be setting up a little area to do my electronic piddling. I'm really looking forward to it.

          When I get that set up, I'll post back here. :)

            Here is the corner I share with my wife. Each has a desk, but since I was first to start this and need both a mental (my Mac) and physical workspace , my desk is a little wider :-)

            Never mind the distortion, it's a badly made panorama, but gives a good idea of where I spend my free time.

              @GertSanders I envy you ;-) I'd like to have a tinker space like that. So that's the place where all to good stuff comes from!

                @TheoL

                Thanks. It's getting there. I would like a few more things: a solid lab power supply instead of the repurposed PC power supply. Another storage cabinet (big fan of my RAACO cabinets) for small parts. The oscilloscope I saw on @Anticimex work bench. A hot air gun, next to my soldering station and finally a second 5K screen (but I'm spoiled already by my Mac).
                I keep my printer on the first floor (this is on the second floor) so I have a barrier to print things (and it keeps me moving a little).

                    Good inspiration here while I'm planning for something better. Atm I only have my 1.1x0,75m family kitchen table, two boxes in a closet and an old (10y) budget laptop behind a pillow in the sofa.

                      Is it in the picture in this thread, or somewhere else? Because I don't see an oscilloscope?

                        What a great thread! Thanks for kicking it back into life, @TRS-80

                        I don't have a workshop so I use the dinner table. Have bought a few assortment boxes to make it easy to hide away all the parts when I'm not using them.

                        The mask is from a project I wore at scifiworld today. It is not (yet) MySensorized.

                            Maybe I should provide a Δ -picture. I mean, the old one is two years old now :)

                            It even more crowded nowadays. Can hardly fit the projects I'm working on :(

                                  This is mine in the clean state, a decent working size but its not a dedicated area, it has to server as my office too. I'm looking to extend the desk round to the left under the window and have a dedicated electronics area. I will upload a image of the desk in action in the near future.

                                  Some little Ni-Cad cells in the right storage hole as you can see, this is the only electronic piece out at the moment :(
