Which are the essential tools in a lab? Which one do I use and how am I organized? A video for all which are curious about how it looks behind the camera. Maybe you discover something you can use for your own work?
This is also my first "real" appearance on UKposts. I thought it is time after 200 videos...

If you don't have at least two-three type of gloves in your lab, you obviously need to improve your knowledge and working environment. What is presented here is not a "Swiss mentality" at work, but it is a proper mentality at work. You don't have to be Swiss to work properly, because everyone can acquire useful practices and habits. This increases efficiency and reduces risk. Excellent example from Mr. Spiess IMO.

Andreas, you're doing an incredible job here and quite pioneering in terms of UKposts content. You're showing the practicalities of maker work, and providing invaluable insight that doubtless took years of experience to gather - and here we are, gobbling it up for free. For that myself (and many others, I fathom) are very grateful. Keep it up!

Thank you for your channel and the risk of going into making a business of it. I have learned a significant amount from you and you saved me money avoiding behaviours and also by not purchasing and testing items that I need not to as you have done the work. I live in a highrise and my workshop (room) is on the 28th floor so my set up is a little different mostly the view that I usually block to concentrate, only to find that it is 9pm by the time I realise another day has gone. Also, great to see you sneak in a little humour as well to make the subjects enjoyable as well as sensible and solid content. Thanks and take care.

OMG! I and my wife watched your video in awe. I am so stunned. I have Soul of a Machine and Skunk Works too! Ken Olden was my Hero CEO. Now the drawers were just awesome. I have plastic boxes but each one a different shape and size. Nothing stacks or is visible. I i have to search by opening them up. Nothing is sorted 100%. I have so mych work to do but you gave me a model to follow or at least begin with. Thank You so much. I build Model Trains. And I 3D print train parts I have dremels and will grind anywhere so chip fly all over Not Good. I just started ESP32 and ESP 8266 development to control train engines and smoke and sounds. I had OctoPi on my printer and a One 31 inch monitor for design. But i also have a demo and test station for assembled chassis of trains. So actually more table tops but less work space some how. I am so encouraged. Thank You, Dennis & Margaret in Virginia

I'm guessing all these additives take away the strength of the glue. Usually I just spray paint over it if I need to blend it in with anything so I probably will never buy coloured hot glue.

Thanks for sharing this video. It gives a good impression of your (hobby-)work. The best idea in my opinion are the empty shells. I am using always them in my projects. The modded shells give stability to the circuit. Keep going your good work!
@AndreasSpiess

Thank you. And you are right with the stability. Single wires have the tendency to fall off. This never happens with multi-pin headers.

i suggest having a look at "sortimo t-boxx" boxes (they also make cabinets with rails, for multiple boxes) or, if you want a cheaper alternative, "allit europlus" boxes (you need to make the cabinet yourself). they are a great combination of carrying case and parts bin (the lid has ridges that keep the bins in place and prevent the components from mixing). you can use them for specific parts, or 1 box per project.
@AndreasSpiess
@AndreasSpiess 5 років тому
Thank you for your suggestions. They look very professional and very flexible, but also a little more expensive compared with mine (at least the second choice). But they are available even in Switzerland which is an advantage.
@JimSteinbrecher
@JimSteinbrecher 5 років тому
yes, the allit boxes are about 2x or 3x the price of the ikea samla boxes (the sortimo ones are even more expensive), and they are much smaller, but the advantage is the small bins that can be taken out individually. they also make a "double" model with a carry handle, i have one of these in the car: www.sichtboxen.com/allit-457236-sortimentskasten-europlus-duo-flex-37-28.html not as good quality as sortimo, but much cheaper.

I used to have quite a big lab myself, but recently I have been on the way of being minimalistic. So only have a few assortments, mostly just order parts when I really need them. Most people don't realise you don't need much and in fact you can do most by thought experiments and simulating parts. On a personal level it gave me a lot more rest.

Andreas, an old DEC colleague and friend of mine Andy Clark - also ex CERN) used to have ZERO office desk space with HUGE piles of stuff on it. His was one of the most organised "messes" ever. He ALWAYS knew EXACTLY where in the vast piles of stuff (close to 1m high!!) where a particular document or article was ... UNTIL he was told by some bosses to TIDY IT UP and follow the "clear desk" policy. After very reluctantly doing so he had difficulty finding anything. Just goes to show.

Dear Andreas, as a Belgian guy with a South-African accent, and living in Vienna, I really enjoy your movies! Great to see that there are still professionals around that like to share their hobbies and experiences - free of charge. I am currently discovering my 2nd life of engaging in things that I have always wanted to do... Like so many people, with an engineering education, I never had the chance to pursue my hobby (electrical stuff) in the professional (=work) world. As a result I have been stuck with boring bureaucratic software engineering stuff (read programming) of which you rarely see real benefit added value, at the end of the day, as 90% of programs are designed for useless processes in the first place. As a near-pensioner, and a biking (bicycle fanatic), I plan to engage in an electrical bicycle project - as i have a couple of practical ideas that I want to explore. Please keep up your great movies, as - each one of them have been very useful and fun to watch!...

I'm using a Docker installation of Partkeepr to keep my modest inventory of parts. it works well and allows embedding datasheets and supplier info if needed. Keeping an inventory allows for parts to be distributed into the next available location, rather than adjacent and in some sort of order. If the part is obviously different, then mixing multiple items in the same location is possible such as through hole cap, with a transistor in the same location. Just make sure you practice backup and restore before committing.

I like your overview of the lab. many helpful hints. I am building my lab currently - moving it from the back of one room to a whole room in my house. It was the grand bargain with my wife and we are both happier now - that's how you make marriages work for 30 years. Your feedback was helpful. I am debating whether to use Ikea or build it myself using Kreg. We'll see. Wenn Du in Amerika mal Business zu tun hast, bist Du gerne bei uns in Portland eingeladen. Looking forward to many more of your most excellent videos. Ciao.

I am very happy with the IKEA stuff, especially because I chose the slightly more expensive mechanics. It is very robust. Concerning Portland: I mentioned to my Patreons that I once will do a world tour to visit my viewers and already got an invitation to Portland. So the chance is high it will be on my list ;-) Thank you!

Again nice Sunday morning entertainment ! Wonderfull overview of you lab. I recognized many parts that I'm using myself, especially the Ikea stuff... The books overview is interessting. I know the feeling of keeping them. I have almost 40 years of Elektors... which to me are more like a treasure. Anyway, you inspired my to speed up the work on my shed in the back yard. Hopefully I'll get it finished by the fall. Btw, the comment/remark of your wife in the beginning of the video, sounds.... so familiar... Good luck and as some other of my favourite UKpostsr often says: 'Stay creative !'

I love the channel and think you are doing great work. I was dissatisfied with my wire strippers and bought the ones recommended in your link. They were a good price and are excellent quality, but all the wire sizes except the very largest are really too small for any wire I use in normal work. My bad, I should have checked that before buying. The allowed sizes are 30,28,26,24,22,20 AWG (or .25, .32, .4, .5, .6, .8 mm). Normal hook up wire is typically 22 or 20 AWG. 30 AWG is super fine and may be used for wire wrap. I recommend that anybody considering these cutters check that the sizes are what they need.

Very nice and good order in your lab, i still have some way to go, but typically the packages from ebay and aliexpress stream in faster than the boxes and drawers to keep them in. I think i might need to re-prioritize and get things in order. Thank you for another great video!!
