My Messes (Lab Tour)

Here are a few random views of my playroom, set one.

Here is the second of three sets of pictures.

And now, the other side of the wall.

This by no means shows it all, but it'll be fun trying to identify what everything is in the pictures.

Mike, Hi very nice and cozy lab. Just like the rest of us, another 20k sq ft and you would have it made. You have made good use of the available space (I have picked up a few ideas from your lay out). Shame that giant champion spark plug isn't for real; It would make a great feed-through. Best Wishes -bill

Wow, I have some catching up to do when it comes to equipment! It looks like things are pretty well organised and useable - I could take a few lessons from that. Thanks for the tour!

Yup, another buncha sq feet would be real nice for many of us. I recognize much of that older test gear, as I still have some of the same stuff -- well built, reliable, it works...
I was surprised to see any floor showing at all with that much of a collection. Here it's often so bad that to walk the 12 feet across the shop to the lathe from the bench means walking about 35 feet to get around all the path blockages. Obviously I need more time doing organizing, and pushing more stuff out to the two storage facilities so I have just the good "working set" here.

Very nice setup, Mike! Me, I'm the guy always needing help to find the junk I'm pretty sure I have -- someplace. Creative chaos devolves all too easily into simple chaos, too much of the time.
