    my soldering depot :)

    Just thought I'd throw on some new pics of my soldering area. I have a light, iron, and all the caps right at my fingertips. I love these multi-drawer dealies... they make everything more organized and convenient.

    Very nice Noah!

    Here's my mess of a bench after a 200+ corporate batch of Dell GX270's, and about 80 regular customers..... To catch the essence of how much it's used, I took this pic before I cleaned it up....

      Man, I wish I could get a run of 200+ machines :o. I'd be happier than a pig in shit for a week!

      Burn in would take a while, though :o

            For that matter, are those plush toy "boggle eyes" in the third-from-bottom row drawer in dood's pic?

              LOL

              It just keeps on coming.... 200+ from one client, 50 from another, plus my single-board customers (always a very steady flow of those)..... All that in a 2 week period.... It's been hell here the last few, and its not slowing down.... Long live bad capacitors and badcaps.net!

                You mean in the 2nd drawer over from the left? Those are AT->PS2 keyboard adaptors....

                Yes, believe it or not, I do still get folks with old AT machines coming through here!

                  nice pictures there are..

                  i don't even have a special shelf for the caps. i keep them on the cookies box.
                  days are so short when you actually do something..

                    I fix AT boards too - but I have separate AT and PS/2 keyboards for testing. Why? Because they were free

                      lots of cnc stuff is based on old at and proprietary psuedo at boards.
                      even rh boards ala packard bell.
                      gotta be ready for anything here.
