@dronebot-workshop

Hello Bill, I qualified as an Electrical Engineer but then went into Finance & Commerce ☹️ and never really dabbled in electrics / electronics except minor jobs around the house.

After retiring I used the little extra time on my hands ( wife always has an urgent job lined up for me ) to get back into electronics. As most do, it started with basic Arduino stuff but has now grown into an "obsession" ( according to my wife ) After doing the usual "smart home" stuff, I began to apply my new "skills ?" to my other hobby, model railways. I enjoy coding ( by no means an expert ) and use this to great extent on my layout (DCC),

My goal is to end up with a workshop "half as organized and equipped as yours......but that is going to be a MAJOR challenge.

Take care, and keep up the great work.

  You only get to see the side that I show on the camera. The other half is a disorganized disaster!

@dronebot-workshop if you think the unseen portion of your workshop is a disaster, you should see my entire workshop/ham shack! 🤪
