Having had to downsize since last year, I have set up a workshop in a small box room. I'm still getting it sorted out though. ( And I've got an outside shed with about 3 tons of "useful" stuff in it)

You have three oscilloscopes, and you use them simultaneously?

External trigger?

 

Anyone who uses three oscilloscopes is dealing some serious mojo. I'm in awe.

And there may be more to the right of the photo!

 

That's one thing I'd like to see... how do you use the laminator to make PCB's? Can you post pics of the process?

Here you go



Here is a thread I created on the subject.

Three oscilloscopes, actually, I have about 8. When I closed my business about ten years ago, I sold a lot of high end test equipment and kept some of the less expensive items "just in case" I needed them. Having built my first oscilloscope at the age of ten out of war surplus parts, I've always had a "thing" for 'scopes and am a bit of a hoarder especially for them. I just couldn't bear to part with any so ended up keeping them.
The bottom left is a Fluke/Phillips PM 3394a 200 MHz digital storage which I use a lot for it's very useful Math functions and storing one off events etc.
on it's right is the PM3092 200MHz non storage version, and above that is the PM3082 100 MHz version of the same series. I also have tucked away another PM3394 and PM 3092. plus some earlier Phillips 50Mhz 'scopes from the 80's, all still working well but I've only limited space now so they reside in storage, again "just in case" lol.
Sure its not often that I need to use more than one at any time, but there have been occasions when I have used two at once.
Yes, I admit it, I've got a scope fetish!! ha ha.
As for the 3 tons of stuff in the shed, well, its not eating anything sitting there, and as we've all done in the past, as soon as you throw out something you've had for years, you find it's just what you need the next week! (plus all the local hobbyists know where to come if they need some obscure part)
My only real regret is that where I am currently living, I cannot set up my "ham radio" station and cannot erect my antenna.

 

Here is my sad bench but a work in progress..

I search every Van Gogh painting like a Where's Waldo book. I look for a detached ear.

I wish my shed looked that clean and organized ..


So your ken doll must really like
the new house right?

 

Ken doll? My Barbies live in there...

That can come in handy when a project is not going as planned.

Hey, at least your drill bits are organized....

And BTW, is that John Lennon?

Nope, the plaque was given to me for directing a production of "Godspell".

Part of that award certainly had to do with your superior organizational skills?

 

I have that same drill press BTW.
