Good beer is cheaper than water here. And we drink it accordingly ;)
I have taken apart more gear than many people. But I have put less gear back together than most people. So there is still room for improvement.

It falls under the heading of Lab chemicals and is far better for you than drinking 99% IPA  >:D

Depends which acronym you meant by IPA. Here, that means India Pale Ale ;)
In a recent visit to WA, a few hours from Bean, we discovered IIPA  :popcorn: < 2 of those and you are wasted !  :-DD

Finally got a nice 19" rack and made my dream signal recovery cart - NIM bin, multichannel analyzer, lock-in amplifier, chart recorder, and auxiliary gear!

I think it turned out marvelously! (Post #4310 in this thread)

OK, so I know what all that lot does (although I'm curious about a lock-in amplifier in that company). But where's your HPGe?

Holy tight spaces Batman!

On the other hand, you literally only have to swivel your chair to go from your computer desk to your workbench...  Efficient!  Creative use, getting the most out of available space.

I added two 8U 19" racks to my workbench:

All 3d printed parts are here



current contents:
  • Ugreen 200W usb charger
  • Rigol DHO924s oscilloscope
  • Riden/Joy-it RD6006 power supply
  • Owon DGE2070 function generator
  • Owon XDM1041 multimeter
  • LED lighting
There's still space left  ;)

Mark has an absolutely luxurious workplace and it will be even better 🤔 I don't know anything 😶 let's be surprised 😁

When you have small room (or when you're too lazy to clean your bench), floor is bench!

Yes, I also sleep right next to this. Live Laugh Lead. This photo was taken a while back. I have since not improved much.
Love the smell of burning capacitor electrolyte in the morning.

My back and neck hurt just looking at that.     :-\
Wire shelves on casters could really help reclaim all that space.  Push your work-surface in front of the shelves. Put the instruments at eye-level with component storage above and heavier stuff below.

Ya know... about a year ago, it looked something like this. Ever since my projects have gotten more complex. My issue is space for stuff. My room is about 8ftx8ft, or about 2.5mx2.5m for those of you who use metric.

That was nice.  Too bad your gear acquisition syndrome is only going to get worse.  Seek help before it's too late.   ;D

I very much doubt that that workbench would hold the weight of even one of those Tek 7000 mainframes. It will require something considerably sturdier to hold even half of those instruments.

However, you have to be a pretty dedicated Tek fan to service one of those mainframes on the floor.

Well, it's a massacre, but there is always a solution, I also work in a small space and the working position of my Tek 2465 is in the air on a pull-out shelf. 🤔A simple modification would help here, raise the bed and create a workplace under it  :-DMM
