Which are the essential tools in a lab? Which one do I use and how am I organized? A video for all which are curious about how it looks behind the camera. Maybe you discover something you can use for your own work?
This is also my first "real" appearance on RU-vid. I thought it is time after 200 videos...

@electronichome1153 4 года назад

If you don't have at least two-three type of gloves in your lab, you obviously need to improve your knowledge and working environment. What is presented here is not a "Swiss mentality" at work, but it is a proper mentality at work. You don't have to be Swiss to work properly, because everyone can acquire useful practices and habits. This increases efficiency and reduces risk. Excellent example from Mr. Spiess IMO.

@Epsteindidnt 6 лет назад

Thank you for your channel and the risk of going into making a business of it. I have learned a significant amount from you and you saved me money avoiding behaviours and also by not purchasing and testing items that I need not to as you have done the work. I live in a highrise and my workshop (room) is on the 28th floor so my set up is a little different mostly the view that I usually block to concentrate, only to find that it is 9pm by the time I realise another day has gone. Also, great to see you sneak in a little humour as well to make the subjects enjoyable as well as sensible and solid content. Thanks and take care.

Andreas, you're doing an incredible job here and quite pioneering in terms of RU-vid content. You're showing the practicalities of maker work, and providing invaluable insight that doubtless took years of experience to gather - and here we are, gobbling it up for free. For that myself (and many others, I fathom) are very grateful. Keep it up!

Some of my family worked at Data General at the time. They said the book was a very accurate description of the culture during the early days.

Dear Andreas, as a Belgian guy with a South-African accent, and living in Vienna, I really enjoy your movies! Great to see that there are still professionals around that like to share their hobbies and experiences - free of charge. I am currently discovering my 2nd life of engaging in things that I have always wanted to do... Like so many people, with an engineering education, I never had the chance to pursue my hobby (electrical stuff) in the professional (=work) world. As a result I have been stuck with boring bureaucratic software engineering stuff (read programming) of which you rarely see real benefit added value, at the end of the day, as 90% of programs are designed for useless processes in the first place. As a near-pensioner, and a biking (bicycle fanatic), I plan to engage in an electrical bicycle project - as i have a couple of practical ideas that I want to explore. Please keep up your great movies, as - each one of them have been very useful and fun to watch!...

@AndreasSpiess 6 лет назад

@p_mouse8676 6 лет назад

I used to have quite a big lab myself, but recently I have been on the way of being minimalistic. So only have a few assortments, mostly just order parts when I really need them. Most people don't realise you don't need much and in fact you can do most by thought experiments and simulating parts. On a personal level it gave me a lot more rest.

@norm1124 6 лет назад

Piet Muijs How do you simulate the parts?

@p_mouse8676 6 лет назад

There are software simulation tools. Important is that you don't simulate the entire circuit, but parts of it

@JimSteinbrecher 6 лет назад

i suggest having a look at "sortimo t-boxx" boxes (they also make cabinets with rails, for multiple boxes) or, if you want a cheaper alternative, "allit europlus" boxes (you need to make the cabinet yourself). they are a great combination of carrying case and parts bin (the lid has ridges that keep the bins in place and prevent the components from mixing). you can use them for specific parts, or 1 box per project.

@AndreasSpiess 6 лет назад

Thank you for your suggestions. They look very professional and very flexible, but also a little more expensive compared with mine (at least the second choice). But they are available even in Switzerland which is an advantage.

@JimSteinbrecher 6 лет назад

yes, the allit boxes are about 2x or 3x the price of the ikea samla boxes (the sortimo ones are even more expensive), and they are much smaller, but the advantage is the small bins that can be taken out individually. they also make a "double" model with a carry handle, i have one of these in the car: www.sichtboxen.com/allit-457236-sortimentskasten-europlus-duo-flex-37-28.html not as good quality as sortimo, but much cheaper.

At some glance, I noticed a goldish cover and though: "This must be 'The Art of Electronics'": I got this myself and this is still top notch! It really teaches you a lot for your projects and is still updated from time to time (last revision was like 5 years ago?) - Even though its first release was almost 45 years ago!!!

I really enjoyed "Now It Can Be Told: The Story Of The Manhattan Project" by Gen Leslie R Groves. He was the Army Corps of Engineers general in charge of the building Oak Ridge from the ground up. He talks about all of the administrative trials such as finding a chemical company willing to take on a project to build multiple plants "for the war effort." The president of the company had to convince the Board of Directors to take on the project without knowing anything about what they were building. I found it fascinating reading.

@timwoodburn5895 3 года назад

I'm using a Docker installation of Partkeepr to keep my modest inventory of parts. it works well and allows embedding datasheets and supplier info if needed. Keeping an inventory allows for parts to be distributed into the next available location, rather than adjacent and in some sort of order. If the part is obviously different, then mixing multiple items in the same location is possible such as through hole cap, with a transistor in the same location. Just make sure you practice backup and restore before committing.

Thank you for sharing your life and lab, Andreas. I recall the DEC PDP-8 was the first computer I 'programmed' in engineering school.

@AndreasSpiess 6 лет назад

I also used a PDP-8 at my first work. Then I got a TRS-80 for me alone ;-)

Hi Andreas, I have read the „Goal“ 30 years ago and forgot about it. When I read it a second time a few years ago, I understood how much it has influenced me subconsciously.

@AndreasSpiess 6 лет назад

I think this is the strength of the format "business Novel" invented by Jeff Cox.BTW he wrote a few other books with other experts. None of them took me more than a day to read.

I love the channel and think you are doing great work. I was dissatisfied with my wire strippers and bought the ones recommended in your link. They were a good price and are excellent quality, but all the wire sizes except the very largest are really too small for any wire I use in normal work. My bad, I should have checked that before buying. The allowed sizes are 30,28,26,24,22,20 AWG (or .25, .32, .4, .5, .6, .8 mm). Normal hook up wire is typically 22 or 20 AWG. 30 AWG is super fine and may be used for wire wrap. I recommend that anybody considering these cutters check that the sizes are what they need.

@cristianstoica4544 3 года назад

Unrelated, I took out "The goal" from the company's library by curiosity. It stood there waiting for someone to pick it up for years. It was an incredible read and I would read it again. I understand why that section was avoided but the book did not deserve that. I found at least one technical application in my real life: the washing machine was way faster than the clothes were drying. It did not matter if I started the washing machine when I had no place to put the clothes to dry for at least a day. I had no success explaining that to my wife... My engineer language was getting in the way :)

@AndreasSpiess 3 года назад

That is the problem I all the time encounter. For me it is clear what happens, but the others do not understand the concept. Mainly in business where they optimize things not on the critical path...

Again nice Sunday morning entertainment ! Wonderfull overview of you lab. I recognized many parts that I'm using myself, especially the Ikea stuff... The books overview is interessting. I know the feeling of keeping them. I have almost 40 years of Elektors... which to me are more like a treasure. Anyway, you inspired my to speed up the work on my shed in the back yard. Hopefully I'll get it finished by the fall. Btw, the comment/remark of your wife in the beginning of the video, sounds.... so familiar... Good luck and as some other of my favourite RU-vidr often says: 'Stay creative !'
