Hello folks,
I spent the weekend remodelling the lab. I thought I'd share the work, for discussion/feedback.
Background: I live in Texas. It's hot. really effing hot. When we moved into the house, my wife (gf at the time) made it clear that a soldering iron did not belong in the spare room. So, I was banished to the garage, with my soldering iron, and a small computer desk.
As I started working on more expat audio stuff with Keef, I expanded around the small desk, to the point where I thought i'd go mad. (with 100F+ heat too!).
So, here's the pictures, taken over the course of a day.
The start. What an effing mess. Extra fans added to cool me down while I worked.
Started clearing up a little... got the floor scrubbed too....
Then got the table assembled.
Ikea got the business... replaced the old crappy desk with a nice L table. Standard Ikea table legs for the table closest, and then adjustable legs for the long desk.
Then got some extra shelving in. Extra storage below the desk on the left gave me space to keep tools etc.
3 fans needed in temperatures of 100F!
Getting late now. It's been an all day project, but it's coming together... starting to look a bit more like a real workspace.
Finally, added some extra storage/workspace on the left. I intend to keep this area for shipping expat audio products from.
There you go. all done. for now. Will update with more soon.
/R
