Whoa! Though I DO see a small space you can use for development. LOL
For me, that's clean.... lol

Well, in all fairness, while my benches and desks are usually very neat and clean, right now things are a mess, especially after switching the second A1 3D printer for a P1S and consolidating them onto one bench. I ended up moving all the filament and I'm still putting away parts from before I moved into the new house.

My main bench is covered in everything I've been working on and moving lately, and not looking for neat or clean.

The development PC desk next to it isn't in bad shape, but that's probably because I haven't spent a lot of time at it lately.

My soldering bench is overwhelmed with much of the stuff that's being put away still and moved. This is the main reason I haven't finished the Office Evolution blog article.

The bench that the old A1 3D printer was on has been collecting things moved out of the way for the P1S, as well as some of the stuff getting ready to move to the workshop.

What I refer to as my sorting table looks much like it has for the last few months, since as I said, I haven't yet had the time to sort it all and put it away.

What used to be my Gaming Desk, is being decommissioned and turned into a Raspberry Pi development station. While it looks relatively clean, I have been using it to do some prototyping on the following unidentified project.

I recently set aside the two breadboards I am using, but they're still connected. There are two replies above this that have the rest of the photos.

That must be some kind of Top Secret project if it is unidentified even to you.  ;D

I'll gladly concede that to you! I am embarrassed at my situation, despite not being to help it at the moment. But I wanted to share the photos so in a few weeks when I wrap the Office Evolution blog entry, you can see all the changes that were made. The Dev Desk, Gaming Desk and old 3D printer bench are all swapping places. The 3D bench is going to be the new "Dev Bench". The Gaming Desk will be where it was for Raspberry Pi development. And finally, the current Dev Desk (Lyft type) is going in the upstairs bedroom, since it will take up less room.

I'll be honest with you, granz. I'm shocked nobody ever followed up and asked what happened with that project after the clues / hints, posting the parts used and even talking about the operation of it. I'm trying to get it done ASAP, it's just that with everything being in flux here, it's hard to not only find time to wrap it, but space! This is why those two breadboards are kind of hanging off the side of my retired gaming PC.  :-X

Sad, but true. I keep hoping that I can cut back, but no luck so far - although I will keep trying.
