I was cleaning files off my old repair shop computer, and came across some pictures from when I first set up back in 2001 I thought you might find interesting. This is before I got the milling machine, resistance soldering unit, and a few other goodies.
Early repair shop layout:
Right side, with mulitscale test bench. Throttles and DCC systems are in the drawers:

Left side with workbench, Arduk tester for 3-rail stuff, and toolboard:

Better shot of the tool board:

Final floor plan with new benches for additional equipment. For some reason, I never took pictures of this layout:

Now I just need the weather to warm up, and my daughter and grandkids to move out, so I get this stuff out of the garage and into a spare bedroom next to the layout room.

Who on earth has a workshop that clean, neat and tidy?
Not me for one. :)

I bet Len spends less time than you do having to look for stuff Roger :D
I learned real quick, if I wanted to find anything the next morning, to pick it up and put it away before I left for the day. ;D
When you've got three repair jobs going at the same time, it's easy for things to get lost in the clutter.

I can imagine!
Oh, come on Len. You are an alien life form from the planet Neaticia. No use pretending it ain't so. :D
