Test bench almost done...
#12

That is fantastic!! I wish that my workshop looked as good as what is in the right of the pic. What is on the left is but a dream!

The one thing that I did was to put an electronic timer on the outlet that I use for my soldering iron (I don't have a fancy soldering station) just to ensure that it shuts down if I forget to do so. I also use the timer for shutting down battery chargers for power drills, portable power sources, etc. so that they are not charging when I am asleep or not home. Too many Li Ion battery nightmares in the news, and besides, this prevents baking NiCads, SLA batteries, etc.
