    As mom always saidโ€ฆ. โ€œ a cluttered desk is a sign of a busy mind. My desk was usually cleared. ( just saying )
    I always like to see other peopleโ€™s work spaces. A good source for my own set up.
    Donโ€™t get stressed, CAUSE IT !

    Well......it's not quite as tidy as that at the moment, those pics are a few weeks old.
    I do still keep it reasonably clean and tidy, and mostly put tools back from whence they came before the bench gets too cluttered๐Ÿ˜‡.
    Shame I don't have any pics of my electronics workbench from when I was working....now that was disgraceful ๐Ÿ˜....but I knew where everything was!

    I think I might have posted these pictures of my workshop before.

    I have an 'integral garage' in my new house that I have converted into a workshop so it's warm in winter โ„๏ธ๐Ÿ˜ and remarkably cool in summerโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ˜Ž.
    For entertainment I have a mini HiFi system for FM, DAB, CD and MP3 playback and also an internet radio unit on which I can find almost any genre of music and, more importantly, my favourite old time British radio comedy programmes ๐Ÿคฃ.

    Hi Peterbro, I could strip down and build up again a Bren gun when I was 14 years old. By the time the Queen asked me to come and work for her I was rather a good shot with it as well. (I did do competition rifle shooting as well). So much so that my first time at the Butts the W/O there tore up my card in disbelief. A few days later he put me in the Station rifle shooting team, so vinidcation was at hand.

    Iโ€™m ok with the boat sitting next to me while I work.
    A kitchen full of snacks within walking distance would be my downfall!

    @Ronald I think claiming to be a veteran would be a stretch for me.
    I was just an instructor in the Air Training Corps for several years - similar to your Canadian Air Cadets.

    Although I did get a real Queens Commission in the RAF Volunteer Reserve Training branch, it isnโ€™t quite the same thing as doing it for real.
    The most danger I was exposed to was teaching teenagers to handle service rifles and LMGs, which isnโ€™t that dangerous at all in reality.

    True Dave. However, I have most of my hobby stuff close together. I have a large technician's bench from where I used to work, plenty of shelving, cabinets, desk, two computers and a bunch of printers. ...or at least it will be when I am done moving back in as I am working on tonight. Down the hall from my kitchen where the beverages and snacks are available. For the dirty stuff I use my garage with the heavier tools, also near the kitchen.

    Despite the distraction with the PC, it is also handy when building model that require 3D printing, all close together. Photo was taken two minutes ago, you can see this message on the PC's screen.
