The Real Workbench Problem: Modular vs. IKEA for Electronics
from My Weird Prompts
Can't dedicate a whole room to soldering and board repair? We break down the real engineering behind a functional electronics workbench — and why most fold-down desks fail. From ESD-safe surfaces and modular storage to height requirements and tool proximity, we compare IKEA countertop setups, mobile workstations like Modulum, and pro-grade industrial systems from Lista and Vidmar. Whether you're renting a 60-square-meter apartment or have a dedicated shop, learn what makes a bench a bench — and which compromises actually work.
