Show us a pic of your workbench/workstation where the magic happens. What kind of surface is your workbench? What kind of desk? etc.
>>2958406roomate found the work bench now a dumping ground for stuff to be organized into the garage, i work on the ground witch disappointingly is vinyl. I had 12x12 tile floor before was great.
>>2958669>>2958670>sander grinder and bandsaws on table>everything not absolutely covered in dustYou guys don't actually use your workstations do you? I cut some wood for a new table using a mitre saw and now I'm going to be spending the next decade vaccuuming and wiping down every single square inch of surface area in my basement.
Behold the two types of /diy/ersThe electronics hobbyist: >>2958668He's got a large workbench with a ton of tiny cabinets and drawers to neatly organize every single thing he'll need. In spite of that, it still looks pretty messy.And the home improvement-vis-a-vis construction enthusiast: >>2958670He's got an entire room, probably a garage, full of all sorts of potentially dangerous equipment, like saws, drills, and grinders. In spite of that, his workspace looks very neatly organized, with no corner actually looking too crowded or so crammed that it'll become impossible to find something.I wish I could be like the latter, but really I'm more like the former.
>>2958697>timestamps 3 minutes apart >filenames share pattern uhg im pretty sure those are the same dudes shit
This is my work bench. I know I need to clean. Please don't bully me. I've been so busy.
>>2958668Bro fix your monitor color temps and report back with a second pic when complete
Lincoln Electric Rinky Dink Table
I do everything on the floor in the basement on top of a folded paper grocery bag
>>2958668Looks very professional. I'm more of a software guy and pretty much a beginner when it comes to hardware, what kinds of projects do you build with that kind of equipment? I guess you expanded it over several years?
>>2958763NTA, but it looks like a tech's repair workbench based on the random items pictured.
This thread made me realize I have a problem because I'm too embarrassed to post my workspaces.I have ten separate project/storage rooms on two properties that I need to clean up of all my tools and shit. Guess I'm just lazy, I only like using my rare and precious free time for fun things, not cleaning up all this bullshit.But I need to get started, it's beginning to drive me crazy.
>>2958697those are both my posts.
>>2958708moron those are 2 different boards. one is blue.>>2958763started out fixing tube radios. now it's whatever I happen to need to fix. started around 2012 when I got laid off from a job.
>>2958685did it maybe occur to you that I cleaned it before taking a picture? Also I clean it after a project is done so future me isn't pissed because he has to clean it before starting the next project.
>>2958697>it still looks pretty messy.should of seen it before I cleaned it. or right now.
>>2958406i recycled the glass top of and old coffee table into the top surface of my main workspace, then when a neighbor was throwing away some small table with a glass top I snatched that up to create my hot workstation on the left
>tfw you start a real trade job and don’t spend nearly as much time at your home benchIt’s a mess right now
