At the new home I have four workbenches. Two are off-duty for the winter now as they are in the garages.? Former owner was an amateur gunsmith, so the work areas are well suited to my needs as well.
My main workshop has a recently finished QDX, plus a pixie project I was working on for the W2LCW club (I teach a makers class for them every Wed night). Not sure what to build next, but it will probably be the QRPguys digital transceiver, followed by a classic QCX that I have from an early run.? I have at least 40 other unbuilt kits waiting for attention.
All of that is surrounded by my computer work (MacBook, and a Dell OptiPlex, and whatever I'm repairing), network switch, VOIP adapter, soldering station, 3D printer, and too many kits and components waiting to be organized into the cabinets I have yet to fill up.
Second workbench is in the utility room, and currently has the XYL's (KD2CHE) cat-toxic plants under a grow lite to keep the felines safe, and a partially dissembled Casio Privia digital piano that needs mechanical rebuilding.? Some keys stick, others fail.
Third (Cold) workbench has my backup HF rig (TS-440SAT) and a few VHF/UHF rigs, and a HW-5400 that I'm trying out.? Also an MFJ tuner that needs some work, and several accessories: filters, transverters, and other goodies.
Fourth workbench is piled with sewing and household goods for now, but looking to make it a woodworking area in the Spring.
I can't complain. Lots to keep me busy over the Winter.
