OK, that's just scary.  How can any workbench be *that* neat???

But I do like the instrument "bookcase".  I definitely have to make something like that.

Because I cleaned properly before I took the picture :)

It's just a shep bookcase from an sheap Norwegian store. I think i gave around 10 USD for it :)

OK, I'll bite  ;D

The electronic part of my man cave:



Detailed view of my homemade equipment, all of them used quite often:



Description:

 1 - The ever ubiquitous Dim Bulb Tester
 2 - Resistor decade box
 3 - 30V max / 200mA to 10A / 60W DC load
 4 - Differential Circuit breaker (GFCI) tester
 5 - Square and sinewave analog signal generator (http://pisotones.com/GF/GF.htm)
 6 - Pi RF attenuator and dummy antena
 7 - RF amplifier
 8 - 8A - 8V to 22V DC short protected and current adjustable power supply
 9 - (under the fan) Capacitor Leakage Tester (http://pisotones.com/CLT-R/CLT.htm)
10 - 230V-230V 100W Isolation transformer
11 - Capacitor outer foil detector (http://pisotones.com/Articulos/DirCaps/DirCaps.htm)
12 - 200V - 100W - 0A to 1.5A DC load (http://pisotones.com/CF-DC/CF-DC.htm)
13 - Mr. Carlson's low voltage capacitor leakage tester
14 - +/- 0V to 32V - 1A symmetrical power supply

...and out of sight, a transistor curve tracer:



There are some other minor projects here and there... I've been making DIY electronics for decades now!

Just a note that we have a long 'show your workbench / mancave' thread for where the general work area outweighs the home-made equipment...

I built this up a couple of months ago.  Just a cheap DC-load module in a nice case with an isolated linear power supply and set up for switchable 2-wire/4-wire mode.

I use it quite a bit for testing rechargeable batteries and other things.  It's a lot easier to use than my Siglent load, so it gets all the small, simple work.  Quite surprised how much use I'm getting out of it actually.
