How to Build a MODERN Electronics Workshop (and How Much it Might Cost) (PLEASE COMMENT)

First, kudos to this fellow for pronouncing "solder" correctly.  The L is silent (sorry to our British readers).  He does have an accent, but he is in Texas, and has picked up the CORRECT pronunciation.  So kudos. 

I really liked the video.  It represents a movement into the modern age of electronics.  I know that we usually talk about HDR, and homebrew rigs that -- while solid state -- are from the early 1970s.  There  has been a lot of progress since that time.  This video is a reminder of that, and talks about what we can do to participate in this modernity. 

Some observations: 

-- The microscope.  Looks cool, but it is kind of scary... 

-- The tiny digital rechargeable soldering iron looks like a great idea. 

-- I agree on the mechanical (non chemical) soldering tip cleaner idea. 

-- The 3D printer info is very useful.

-- Enclosures?  I am still in the 1/8 inch plywood era.  I have a ways to go. 

-- We could use more info on CNCs. 

-- I didn't know that you could get a pick-and-place machine for the home.  Probably just as well! 

-- I like the thermal camera.  I also like his suggestion that you could just burn your fingers! 

-- I think an oscilloscpe is a must, even early on.  I agree on the need for a multimeter.  

-- Indeed, a good PC is a must.
