Update: My home office went from a mess to a real workspace in about 3 weeks

I mean, my setup was just a laptop on the kitchen table for years, and I was always getting distracted. I finally cleared out a corner of my bedroom, got a cheap IKEA desk, and put up some shelves for my stuff. The difference in how much I get done, especially on my writing projects, is crazy. Has anyone else found that just having a dedicated spot, even a small one, made a big change for them?

Bought a $400 thermal camera for tracing door operator circuits.

Found a bad relay in five minutes on a job that would've taken half a day with a meter. Anyone got a better brand they swear by for this kind of work?

Can we talk about the time I finally figured out why my bread was always gummy after 3 years of dense loaves?

Last week, I realized I was kneading my whole wheat dough for 15 minutes instead of the 8 my recipe called for, which was developing too much gluten and trapping all the moisture inside.

I always thought those little dive scooters were just for tourists in Cozumel

But I had to use a Suex XK1 on a big hull clean in Seattle last month, and it cut my bottom time in half. The boss said it would save air and let me cover more area, and he was right. Anyone else had a job where a scooter actually made sense?

Unpopular opinion: Skipping filler issues made me enjoy comics more.

I just read the main arcs and ignore the extras! How do you guys choose what's worth your time?

Damp air in my old shop used to warp book covers until I set up a fan.
