 Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me. |

Unfortunately my back shed allocation will be reduced dramatically in size, so I will have to say goodbye to my hoard of electronics. I have thousands of items including new old stock and display systems from an IT business I ran in the mid 1990's so there is plenty of retro computer hardware available including hundreds of cables and adaptors and computer hardware. I have many examples of MMBasic controllers since the Micromite, tools workstations and the like.  Here is a small part of the current workshop which does not include the storage area. I am in central Victoria, Australia so if there is interest in any thing particular please PM me. Graeme (0A47) |

I know the feeling.... Having recently moved house, my new office/workshop is half the size of the old one, but I managed to squeeze in quite a lot despite that fact!   Smoke makes things work. When the smoke gets out, it stops! |

The other challenge is to reduce the vehicle fleet from 7 to 2 which will have to share the shed space. 0A47 Edited 2024-11-22 16:48 by OA47 |

Hi Grogster, That is to small to do some serious work (except drink Haagen beer). Where are the shelves with parts ? Relying on JLC storage ? Replace the pink shelves with something that reaches to the ceiling, and stock it with items. (my wife calls these items "idea's". And someone should never run out of idea's). Hi OA47, Too bad you have to scale down. But getting rid of some of the old stuff is needed sometimes. Make sure you check the retro stuff online before binning it. Sometimes items may have real value, and could be sold on ebay. There is (at the moment still) demand for some retro stuff. Volhout Edited 2024-11-22 16:54 by Volhout PicomiteVGA PETSCII ROBOTS |

Haha!  Haagen is my favourite - well spotted!!!  I have built a new workshop. I will upload some images in the next day or two. Smoke makes things work. When the smoke gets out, it stops! |
