Workspace · My Setup, Rig & Daily Tools

/ workspace

My workspace, openly on display.

An honest look at the gear I work, teach and tinker with every day: the rig under the desk, the chair that puts up with me, and the small things in between.

Note: I am not selling anything here, which is why I deliberately do not link any products. No affiliate links, no recommendations with ulterior motives, just an inventory.
