Is this complete test bench too good to pass up for $800?
bd139:
I wouldn’t touch it. Buy what you need when you need it and make the odd opportunistic purchase.
I’ve spent net $0 on all my kit because I did a lot of opportunistic purchase/repair/sales.
metrologist:
I'd go take a look, tally up each piece with my price, and work from there.

I don't really see $800 worth of gear there. Most of it is old and/or cheap.

If you brought wisely might even have a little change left over. It would be a good basic but quality setup for someone starting out and that you can expand on later if required.
Buying a bunch of tools and components upfront you may never use just seems a waste to me. I'd also be hesitant buying boat anchors unless you have a good reason.

Agreed.

Who said $800 was final? These things are like Gumtree or Kijiji or Craigslist..
