The rules state:
Any images you include in your post must be less than 400 pixels wide .... Offending images may be removed at any time -- if you post oversized images, don't be surprised or angry if you find all your images deleted.

Read this about how to use the "width" tag.
Seconded. Please go back and clean up the oversized images, before someone else ends up having to remove a lot of images from an otherwise great thread.

I spent a week cleaning before I went to school. Before taking that pic I had my Versapulse YAG head (and water cooling, quad-mot psu, 5 logic power supplies, 2 scopes, a few hundred feet of wire (not counting the magnetics), some big caps, a bunch of optics) on the left dresser, all of my laser gear spread across the rug, my 500w mazzilli smps supply in front of the computer, and a few other various projects spread across the room. Now I just have all of my laser diodes, optics, silicon, GaAs (laser diode ) and optics mounts/stages organized in the drawers (amidst my clothes in different drawers) and my electronics stuffs in the USPS boxes up above (have had that system for a few years now). There is a closet behind the camera that has larger gear and tubs full of more assorted junk, and another bookshelf with my test geaer and my audiomodded SSTC (finally it works well enough I can plug it in, hook it to my laptop, fire up vlc and flip the power switch)

now a word to you guys... If I get robbed... you know I'm coming after you guys first ;p
Honestly... I dunno if I feel right about posting after seeing matt's situation there, I feel pretty bad about it, but here's my stash. I am in need of many more power strips, my main bench has 2 but they're pretty full right now.
Shere Khan's bench... Tek 191 generator for 350KHz to 100MHz, Tek 2430A for cramming things into the computer, couple power supplies, freq. counter, surround sound amp, selected electronics cookbooks for when I'm a dummy and need a cheat sheet.
Draft table, soldering area, volt meters, Boonton RMS RF volt meters, 10MHz gen, 5W pots, and a mess of course
The drooly bits, hehe, 100Hz to 1.5GHz analyzer, 20MHz synth with HV option 40Vpk pk, test Tesla coil with adjustable coupling vertical adjust via car jack, or jack coil... hehe. This is for some future HV pinging/ coupling testing at moderate input levels, its not for full SGTC duty, just pinging.
back room, 1MHz synth, 20MHz synth, multiple GR sine sources for 5MHz to 900MHz coverage and testing, couple of HP vector volt meters ( 1MHz to 1GHz) with BNC adapters and the N tee adapters. One of these guys won't lock real well because some idiot practically shreaded the B sensor cable and it has a bunch of micro coax inside (irreplacable ).

I'll just resize them, I thought it was 600 pix wide but that was a limit from another forum. Can I ask why the limit is 400 pix, the forum layout allows for larger images.

Nothing fancy really, a weller solder iron and a 20MHz dual trace scope, and my little princess the vttc :D its actually running, but the sparks seems short because of all the light and flash on the camera :) it strikes about 30cm into air.
