Saturn's Shop Shenanigans

Saturn · August 30, 2020, 11:25pm

Welcome to my humble abode. This is where I spend most my time sleeping, computering, and building… among other things. Let’s dig in!

Here is where the action happens. The things that occur here aren’t exactly groundbreaking but it’s honest work. Key points include the mini traffic cone, mason jar of zip ties, and candles. I still need an old shop stool to tie the place together as well as more stickers. Boxes and padded envelopes underneath as well as some charging devices. Re-used recyclable trash bag to the left.

Rifling through the drawers you can see all the crap I’m here to show off. Top one has the tools and so forth.

Below that are adhesives and soldering/sanding equipment.

Below that are general parts and brushes and battery supplies as well as paints.

Even lower and there’s the misc parts (less cool) than above and clamps + frit

The deep bottom ones contain wheels and batteries in the left, and tapes in the right. Also more batteries.

Hidden in the closet are misc bolts and so forth. Most of the hardware you need to get around town + fun things.

Now where I spend most of my time; including where I’m typing this up right now! Lots of good hours have been wasted here.

More board storage in front of the workbench. Riding gear is in the backpack

Stay tuned for developments and day to day projects.

Damn bro I don’t understand how anybody can work in such a clean and organised work space

Itsmedant · August 31, 2020, 1:08am

I was thinking that same thing with the drawers…if I took pictures of my space right now it would be horrible.

But @Saturn, you’ve inspired me to spend some time in the garage cleaning tomorrow

Saturn · August 31, 2020, 2:41am

I cleaned up a little beforehand. I’ve been keeping organized though which helps. Have some wires to solder eventually.

Right!?! i mean (4) quick-grips and ZERO beer cans?!? even @Linny has the aroma of pakalolo we can smell in each one of his images.

Linny · August 31, 2020, 2:50am

I have a weed scented candle for when doing soldering work

Wandagoner · August 31, 2020, 2:56am

“candle”

and @wandagoner has pizza scented aftershave

glyphiks · August 31, 2020, 2:57am

I can see both bench space and floorspace. This is unacceptable in my books.

Itsmedant · August 31, 2020, 3:27am

Then I should take pictures of my garage. Maybe I’ll start a thread tomorrow and show progress of me getting it back to “normal”

glyphiks · August 31, 2020, 4:38am

That would be much appreciated. I know what its like though, you feel all warm and fuzzy inside now that it’s clean so you decide to work on something…

BOOM

Instant disaster zone.

Super Jelly on the Husky. Tuned in!

Andy87 · August 31, 2020, 5:12am

I’d love to have such a workbench.
Very nice and organized

Andrew · August 31, 2020, 5:34am

Fucking seriously. Teach us your ways @Saturn

Saturn · August 31, 2020, 6:01am

sTEP 1: turn off caps lock

Step 2: don’t buy a lot of shit

Step 3: put what shit you have away nicely

Step 5: clean up slightly before taking photos

Step 6: ???

Step 8: profit

glyphiks · August 31, 2020, 6:10am

What fucking planet are you from dude?

Saturn · August 31, 2020, 6:13am

eARTH i Think.

glyphiks · August 31, 2020, 6:15am

Your steps to profit boggle my mind. Perhaps this is why I never profit

Saturn · August 31, 2020, 6:19am

It do be like that tho

Saturn · September 2, 2020, 2:01am

Just some charging. Need to bring over the DC converter for more juice capabilities but it’s kinda big

Saturn · September 7, 2020, 4:38am

Reassembling the drivetrain. Mounts got slightly loose because of a few spacers so I removed a couple.

Gotta be careful with cracked carbon fiber. Got a couple pieces in my fingers. They came out.

I think it’s time for gloves, even just to keep off the grease and grime
