    @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).

    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!

                                    @Samuel235 I almost feel ashamed. I have a relative cheap soldering iron and a cheap multi-meter. But like I always tell people, when they ask me about the best tools for woodworking. It's not about the tools, it's what you do with it ;-)

                                      @TheoL, this is my only 'higher end tool' at the moment. But i'm looking around for a good, but used, oscilloscope so i can start to inspect whats happening on my PCBs electronically. I also need a decent multimeter, i'm currently using a £5 'thing'.

                                      There is no need to be ashamed at all, we all have to start somewhere ;)
