    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.

                Sorry, you're right. It is marceltrapman's desk I saw it on.

                  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 :(

                                  I do indulge in "suikerwafel" to keep my brain happy. My wife keeps me young. Running on occasion also helps. Never tried protein, does Rochefort 10 count ?

                                    @GertSanders, If that suikerwafel is those waffles, I really want to try one! Your wife will, indeed, keep you young sir! Ahh running, I like to see you're active, not my style of sports but i appreciate it! Now, I'm English, but i do know how to use google and I recognize 'Rochefot 10' as a ale/beer. No, that is most certainly not protein ;)

                                          I think we should get a tooling topic going, what major testing equipment we all have and what we wish to gather in the future (if any) and then recommended tooling for new comers to purchase to help get their hobby off to a good start. Yes, I'm in that later category.

                                          I will get one made within the next week if no one does it before me. Too busy right now unfortunately, so would appreciate if someone else did it but if they don't I will see to it asap!
