I had been using a study desk as my work bench, due to the height it's giving me pain in the neck and making it difficult to concentrate and work for longer that few minutes at a time. I need a proper desk to work on the watches. I am contemplating on getting a new workbench made, however it expensive and there are no ready made unit available, since it's not many people looking for it over here where I am at. Few days ago, stumble upon an ad in the local used market on the internet for an old Jewellers desk and it's going for RM 100.00 that about USD 30.00. Here it is below, it's 36 inches tall and 31 inches wide with about 20 inches depth, just nice for me and it doesn't cost a bomb. It's heavily used by the old Chinese gentleman that quit jewelry making and just decide to get rid of it. It's made of hard wood and must be around 30 years old, about that. I will need to clean it and probably give it a much needed rub down and stain it back to seal the wood. Very heavy and made to last. All looks ok, except the skirting on the right. The wood crack and I will need to remove all the skirting and redo them. It has three drawers, the top most is the widest. I can use it as a catchment and the keys are still there :) Okay, I am excited today and will need to do lots of work on it. Slowly I'm getting my work area done.. :) Affnan

That's what I based mine on too. It works for me. :)

It's going to be brighter in the mornings now in the UK as from tomorrow. Don't forget to put your clocks/watches forward an hour. I know for Willfly that this will most likely take a few days so you better get started mate :D

todays' watch. my Bulova Computron drivers N6. absolutely pristine, not a scratch or scuff, bought it as a non runner 10 years ago, pulled out a leaky battery, cleaned the contacts and it has run perfectly ever since. i have a soft spot for well made early LED's. Todd
