Hi guys,

I've finally been able to start taking readings and other funky test with my scope, gotta say... that it's lots of fun.

I'm a bit CDO with my bench organisation and wondered how you guys managed that. I'm looking to get a well featured function generator and a heavy duty dual bench power supply.... ...so i have a quite complete setup that will probably last me for years.

I highly doubt that it's a good idea to stack all those unit on top of each other for cooling and other possible issues of doing so. I was thinking of making a small wood cabinet in wich i could slide each of the units in with fair spacing between them, have a power strip in there and an isolation transformer for the scope in case i probe at the wrong place in HV situations. The transformer have been suggested to me by good buddy Joe @StaleFishFX/BYOC Mod.

So i'm just curious of how you guys handle this.

Any input, pics, isolation transformer suggestions are highly welcome. :)

Thanks

Rej
