Help! Electronics needs more storage and a new workstation

Tags: #<Tag:0x00007fa4964893a0>

@woodworkers, @electrotechs, @directors

The electronics area is disappearing under a pile of stuff and we desperately need more storage. We also need another workbench.

I’m looking for volunteers to make another workstation like the ones we have.

We also need two more shelves above the current workbenches and the new workbench.

Ideally, I’d like someone to volunteer to lead, I’m happy to arrange materials etc.

Yes, thanks @Jem! Yes there is too much stuff all over the place!

@Riggerz might be able to help?

Thanks Andy, @Riggerz has agreed to lead this but would like help if there is anyone else.

Would love to get this done, perhaps with a little advice from Joe/Mark as to how best to go about extending the design upwards with a few more shelves on top.

Thank you for considering me. Much appreciated.

Hi Gem and Riggerz :smiley: I have measured the space to the wall and I would suggest you do two more benches (they will fit nicely ) and also the bike chest will fit as well , I have a few thoughts on the design to make it look much nicer and user friendly . Keep well . Brian D=

Hi @platinumnqueen22., Brian. I will come by in the morning and brainstorm the design with you as you finish cleaning if that’s OK with you?

Let me know what time to arrive buddy. Thank you.

Could we get some full height storage as well rather than just bench space?

Currently we’ve got a lot of bench space that’s being used (inefficiently) as storage since it’s designed for work room not storing stuff- would be good to have some space that’s just for storage to free up the workspace we’ve already got

Yes, definitely

Full height is difficult with a curved wall.

The plan includes shelving above the current and new bench(es), at least one and probably two shelves.

Finally, the day has come :grin: Free up the benches from plastic boxes!

Did you guys come up with the blueprint for the new benches? It would be great if there were more 24" deep shelves above their table level( can be on the side).

Also, can we have another half depth shelf 40cm below the top of the current soldering bench, for the basic scope and power supply?

No plans yet
We’ll see what can be done with the shelves
