I use wire frame shelves on wheels for the working equipment. You can clamp it together.? The main workbench is also on wheels. For some equipment, the corner is beveled to allow access by crawling under the workbench.? You'll want cheap masonite plates as fillers to keep the feet from being caught in the wires.? This gives me less density, but more access.? Normal air circulation is like a normal bench.

Gang,
Yves, welcome to the group.? I mostly lurk way in the background.
I find this to be a great thread.? I, like many of you, am a great collector of test and measurement equipment.? Most of it I need and use in my work, but some I am protecting from someone's dumpster.? I have a two car garage as my workshop and a 20-foot shipping container full of stuff.? My main work bench is so cluttered with pieces of half baked projects that there's hardly any space to work.? My main work bench started out as a heavy duty storage shelf.? My son and I evolved it into a very nice and sturdy work bench with the idea that I would not allow it to turn into a mess like all my previous benches. Hah!!!? Anyway, one of my questions for all of you is, with your equipment that seems to be piled many levels high and up against walls, how do you keep stuff cool?? I've put a couple of 5-1/4" muffin fans blowing laterally across the back of my piles of equipment.
I'll take a picture of my shoppe and post it hear for you all to have a good laugh.
Tell me how you handle the heating.
