This has been along time coming. I've been needing a dedicated workspace for so long it actually took an emotional toll. I reached my breaking point and finally had to just do it! I didn't even film what my room looked like before...lol.
Anyway, this video is about my workshop build journey. It was a lot harder to pull off and took much longer than I anticipated, but finally after 7 weeks, it's finally done! Please note this video is mainly to document the process in case others want to convert their garage into an electronics lab too. The HVAC concerns were the most concerning to me, as I am not a professional in that space and didn't want to create a danger. So it was a process to learn and verify I was doing things safely. Hopefully the video helps you get ideas for your build.
Links to products I used are below. If you are going to buy it anyway, it helps the channel and costs you nothing.
