I watched the first few minutes on the bench area and thought, "Hell, my bench has been worse than that pretty often..."

Then the video kept going and holy crap... :popcorn:  :palm:

"I tried to sell it once. No one wanted to buy it, so I got the message that I better keep that one..."  :-DD

I'm just wondering how he can afford all that junk - and the space to put it in.

I'm going to download this video and keep it for the next time I'm accused of either a) having too much stuff or b) not keeping the workshop / ham shack tidy.
Should you find yourself in a chronically leaking boat, energy devoted to changing vessels is likely to be more productive than energy devoted to patching leaks.

thats when you build a humidity and temperature (within cost reason) controlled shed fleet filled with nice shelves and put a inventory sheet on the door.

did I say shed? ware house.

and you steal a amazon bot to deliver gear to your work bench  :-DD

This is my favorite episode of Hoarders ever!

"Bear in mind, because I don't want you to think I'm a lunatic or anything. This is only some of it; the rest of it we had to pack in the container, so..."

Quote
"What that was there was just a few Digi-Scans. I've got quite a few more in the boxes; I just haven't had a chance to get to... A lot of my CB stuff I've just had to put into big 20 kilo boxes and basically, just no way in the world I can cope with that...there's just no space..."

That could have been me. I'm not going to buy a bigger house ever!

I think, in the old Aussie vernacular,"He's not short of a quid!"

A mate of mine had his parent's back yard filled with classic "step down" Hudson cars.
I was only small fry, with two 1952 Chevs in Mum's yard.
