    Thanks Smason!!! At least someone wanted to participate..... lol! It looks fantastic! By the way, it's good to have a clean work space, don't listen to them! At the end of the day I clean up (for the most part) it's important to have a clean work space and to take care of the tools that make you money!

    At the end of the day if your desk looks like this (replacing the coke with dust... and not angel dust), it can't be a good thing. I'm not going to lie but TopCat, this is the image that comes to mind when you describe how much dust is on your workbench! lol!!!!!

    I just cleaned up a week or 2 ago.


    Test gear visible:
    Hitachi V212 scope (on top of it is a home brew curve tracer)
    Yihua 0-30V power supply, SMD Hot air rework station, old RS Multimeter
    80's Weller WTCP, Hakko 936 Fluke 87-V Fluke 77
    In the drawer is another RS multimeter, an old RS DMM, ESR meter, Peak Semiconductor tester, signal tracer, home-make function generator, and a few other things I'm forgetting.

    You should check out theamphour.com workbench of the week.

    Search for "bench" and it will take you to specific episodes where the photos are.

    PS. Episode 77 was one of the best.

    Please don't take this posting as me bragging about what I have. I'm very humble and I don't think my workspace is anything to write home about. But I learned a lot about setting up my work area by seeing other peoples shops and asking questions. I think posting your work space would be great to a beginner to open up conversation as to why, what and how you set up your shop the way you did. Also, all of us geeks appreciate this kind of stuff!

    These pictures are of my home office, I also have a warehouse that I store a lot of the bigger items. As you can tell from the pictures, it's not a very big room so a warehouse was important for me to obtain. Especially when it's a friend of the families and is willing to let me use it for free! lol!

    Hi, Can we use SMPS Bench Power Supply for Laptop troubleshooting?
    by shamsudeen
    Hi all, I just need to know that, can i use SMPS type power supply to test and short circuit detection on a laptop motherboard?
    I saw 95% of repair guys are using only Linear bench power supply. linear bench power supply is pricy, thats why i planned to get one SMPS supply.

    i know that in linear power supply the noise will be very low comparing to SMPS supply....

    Bench test a series X
    by Eniaro
    How do you bench test a series X? I was planning to find a defective PSU to use its connector, but before I go about doing this, I was wondering if there's any bench PSU to the series X connector adapter available

    Friend messed up my laptop motherboard while working on my bench
    by Geeker007
    Hi All,

    So my friend was visiting and he wanted to use my solder bench to solder on some WLED circuit board. My laptop was open on the side for RAM upgrade. I know my mistake.

    So while soldering he had too much solder on the soldering iron tip and he just shook off the soldering iron on the table itself to remove extra solder on the soldering tip and it landed on the motherboard of laptop. He then out of fear tried to remove it using solder wick and did more damage by removing some components as well. So here I am with weird situation.

    I have not tried putting...

    Bench PSU question
    by Crystaleyes
    Hi all.
    Looking for some help regarding the workings of this unit.

    Some time ago I picked up a digital bench power supply from the local flea market here in Rio. It's a 'Sincler SPS 3015/D' which I imagine is 30V, 1.5A 'Digital'.
    Even though it would turn on and show a display, it wasn't working, and no matter how hard I have looked, I've found no reference let alone any kind of schematic. I imagine it is from the late 70's or early 80's? I can only assume that all the components are to the original specs although it had clearly had prior work done so it 'is' possible...
