I see that bottle of Jack's Honey liquor ...

Hang on a sec, wouldn't it be more appropriate to refer to it as his Fuzzy Logic Generator?   

Touche!

you guys don't get out much if that was a funny joke   not saying that to attack, just surprising to me that ... ahh nevermind.  i must watch too much comedy.

it's important to laugh at the little things, i suppose.  you guys did and i didn't, so thumbs up to you guys (yes, seriously.)

That is the "Gatwick Airport prize for electronics", for my college project (analogue auto ranging ohm meter). Pleased that I won something, although I haven't figured out why an airport manager decided to sponsor this of all things...

42 inch touchscreen? You'd be standing so close to touch it that you can't see 80% of the screen surely?

[Rigby]

I have an 80" touchscreen at work (not on my desk).  I use the hell out of that thing.

Here is my lab. Mostly for repair works and for some prototyping projects.
The shelf is not finished. I haven´t enough time for all. But maybe the end of the year can help with free time.

[VK5RC]

I like the stereo microscope on an arm, is that home made or a pre built unit?

Pre built. With some changes. Now is really stable and quiet comfortable. Long time ago I bought that here (but for more cheaper price: http://www.weidinger.eu/en/shop/fume_extraction/soldering_fume/weidinger/weidinger_wla-1_and_accessories/wla-1_accessories/wl15529

Looking forward to seeing it, Free.

Actually, between the "starts" and the "Ends" are all our dreams.
A bit Forest Gump, but threads like this are as inspirational as they are aspirational.

One day I'll post a pic here, one day...

If only I had your time, money, know-how and motivation... 

[SeanB]

It is the motivation more than anything else.

some people enjoy a good glass of beer or wine, i enjoy a good soldering session or repair. plus the money invested isn't pissed down the drain afterward

The two can go quite well together.

For me finding a big CRT TV in the dumpster is like cristmas and hours of joy taking parts out and sorting them out .
