I like the idea of such "Glove lights". I might just buy them for fun.
No need to wrap youreself into led lights [emoji14] But if you do, I recommend RGB :D

Gamma spectrometer works. Now some yellow crystals need regenerating and testing.

Yes, lots of lights everywhere! The under-bench ones are also useful since the workbench depth allows for storage of repair queue items.

Replaced the closet with an electronics workbench in the den.  Fold-down table for solder/rework in the garage.

Nice gear - but no power supply?

I can see two Rigol DP832 PSUs on the left side of the first shelf. However, the tartan wallpaper would drive me nuts.

Perhaps adding some "Prilblumen" will improve?  ;D

My now finished "holiday lab". With a PM3251, a TS100 powered by a 16V laptop PSU, Fluke 8050A, SDG1025, PE1540. In the cabinet there is a Fluke 25.

Ah, just the edges. Well spotted!

The Scott in me loves the tartan. After all, if it's not Scottish, it's .... ;D

well, this will be my work space...eventually.

i do need to think seriously about how to keep it insulated and damp free.
tough when its only going to be a 'wiggly tin' roof.

You might want to look into the following:
  • Rigid Foam Insulation, then cover with heavy duty plastic sheeting to seal out moisture. Not sure where you're located, but I suspect this would be the less expensive option.
  • DIY Spray Foam Insulation Kit
Install some wood strips directly to the brick in order to attach a wall covering (peg board sheet, laminate sheet, or sheet rock/drywall for example).

There's also paints/coatings that are made for sealing brick and concrete walls & floors that might eliminate the need for plastic sheet.

much my thinking at the moment.
first point is to get the windows and roof on.

my hope is to use board insulation on the roof as it will be easier to fit that way.
Then depending on costs glad the roof with a cavity for insulation to go into. but that is no small job.

nice to know i wasnt too far off.

(based in the UK BTW - nice and damp)
