My Local Surplus Store has a HP 8341A Sweeper for sale.
That's what I may have to end up going with... An 8340B, specifically.
I was hoping to find a 83640A, 83650B, or 83651B, but they're still going for five digits, used.
Oh Yeah !
They are nice... and pricey too.

Laptops are great buttwarmers aren't they

I like that clothing hanging on the chair ! Perhaps for certain reasons ...

I see your Supervisor on the table there.
Wow, that's so nice and tidy. Do you actually do any work there?
My workbench looks a lot more like that of the late Jim Williams. I just wish my engineering skills looked more like his too.
Actually. This photo of the first day after the reshuffle. Now here is a wild mess

Not a fan of feline supervisors but much better than a seagull supervisor. They just fly in, crap on everything and fly back out again.
My small work bench
Amazing looking workspace, definitely post-cleanup. What is that power supply you are using? I am currently looking for one.
Here is my high school workstation. Found a Tektronix 2246 oscilloscope on craigslist last year, and was able to get it for $70 + RC Plane Components. Just grabbed the GW Instek 8020h function generator on ebay in partially working condition($20!); it has to be toggled on and off a couple of times for the display to show the correct output. On the bench right now is a PYNQ-Z1, which was an amazing purchase with the academic discount. Under it there is a Z80 on a bread board and a little bit of storage.
I use a homemade power supply:
That explains the amazing minimalism/lack of branding.
Looks to me like you are stepping down wall, then outputting it into a switching power supply module? Obviously there is more going on than just that, but is that the basic concept.
Would you happen to have some schematics to share?
Switching power module is used only for powering the microcontroller and the display. All the analog section (OpAmp, ADC, DAC) is powered by a linear regulator. Maybe not the best solution, but enough for my tasks. Unfortunately there is no schematics(But the scheme is made almost like in the video of Dave: EEVblog #221 - Lab Power Supply Design - Part 1)
By the way, I recommend the power supply: (Gophert cps-3205) For the price of $ 45 Very good
, but it is switching power supply...

Thanks for the recommendation, I will take a look at it.
Lots of good work benches keep them coming.
Here is my small home workbench
(not so much a home as a cabin in the woods - living outside of town on permafrost means no running water, but more money for test equipment ) .
Excellent loxodes. Especially the aurora borealis! A cabin in the woods with nice test equipment. What more does one need.

I would personally argue that one also needs running water, but the test equipment *might* make up for it.

I love it, looks like my kind of country.

One needs running electricity and high speed internet, water can be hauled in with 20 liter canisters

Back in my day, we hauled our electricity home in buckets, uphill both ways!
