When I was laid off my last job in 2012.
I made arrangements to continue doing the work as a contractor.
Created a business, converted my garage into a room.
(with insulated garage door / code work around)
Bought all the test equipment, parts, manuals etc.
This bench is used for my work, hobby's, projects and a occasional TV repair.
