Whats your Work-Bench/lab look like? Post some pictures of your Lab.

[nanofrog]

Pens and pencils in a stubby holder, must be a European thing.

Nope, not just European.  I have coffee cups on my workbench and desk with writing implements, scissors, uRuler, etc.  Been doing it forever.

Doesn't that make the coffee taste kind of funny?

 

I just add extra milk and sugar

I love the taste of ink in the morning...

Then you might want to give flux a try.  So many uses...

 GERN flux? Indeed it does...  (inside thing with a bunch of model railroaders, who each model a plant of the fictional GERN Industries on their layout). If it's GERN it's GOOD!

Needed a computer table for the eastern corner of the shack. Desired something basic and sturdy as it might occasionally get a heavy piece of equipment plonked on top. Trawled through the on-line stores of various local furniture retailers but couldn't really find anything suitable. So I bought some 30mm RHS, two melamine shelving planks and an aerosol can of flat black spray paint and made one. Out of pocket about $110.

Red = What I see
- I wish I could weld nice like that, and make it square like that

Green = What she sees
- PLANTS! FRUIT! Looks like our trees!

That desk looks very much like the desks I use.

Some of the local high schools went for a refit and they sold off all the desk from the science labs.

Frames are welded 30 & 35mm steel with laminated 20mm high density particle board. Not quite MDF but still rock solid. 900 x 1800 in size.
I have a mountain of old HP gear on one and it hardly moves!

LOL. Fruit production this year was abysmal; the buckets needed last year remain sitting unused. Nary seen a bee all summer, even with the jasmine in full bloom. The abnormal heat seemed to have killed them off and nothing got pollinated. Two tomatoes eventually grew from six plants that were full of flowers. Didn't even bother with a net on the apple tree this year, just left the handful of fruit on it to the rosellas. Still have frozen stock of pie and apple sauce from last last summer though.

First thing I noticed was the lawn and thought: Why is mine always full of weeds and stray plants and doesn't look like that!

 Well, got a CAD rendering of what I want to build for my bench. Less the shelves. That's what the extra leg in the middle is for, to support an upgright for shelves. The left side will be the electronics side, the right side will be for model building (trains and the related items for the layout). In the corner is where I plan to put a computer which will connect to things like my oscilloscope and logic analyzer as well as the programming and control devices for the model trains. Nestles neatly in the corner of one of my spare bedrooms.

Sharing my workbench.  Mostly made of hacked Ikea shelves and brackets.

Exactly. Perfect excuse for a vacation in Greece.    Now to start a crowd funding campaign to pay for it...

I've tried Retsina several times at various Greek restaurants. Perhaps, I've never tried the good stuff, but somehow it always reminds me of Pine-Sol.

Maybe you could start a battery booster crowd funded campaign. But don't make the same mistake as Batteroo. It HAS to include neodynium magnets. Everyone knows that the secret to free energy and over-unity lies in the magic that these magnets possess.

My newly built work area, it's a W.I.P.
I do mostly audio repair work.

Looks nice.

[OilsFan]

Bins are to store connectors as I do pro audio and video cables. Also build some guitar pedals.

I have Greek relatives...... Never tried the pine wine, but the Greek coffee that they serve with a knife and a fork in a small cup is divine. A tip it to try some decent Ouzo, which is usable as both drink, firelighter and brake fluid, all in the same bottle.

[GreyWoolfe]

Speaking of ouzo, years ago I knew someone who made their own grappa-Italian moonshine.  Had a very nice taste and quite strong.  He told me he ran out of gas for his lawn mower once and put some grappa in to finish the job.  Lawn mower ran just fine.
