Re: Robotics Workspace Floorplan
One thing I might add is to also set up a dedicated electronics bench (soldering station, power supply, etc). You want to keep electronics away from the machining areas so that you don't get dust and other junk between the pins (thus shorting out your entire system), and there's really not much overlap in terms of tools for the electronics guys and the mechanical guys. The electronics bench can also double as a test bench, where you can basically have a clear area to test systems in, with access to the tools you'll most likely need to do quick fixes during testing (you generally don't need a machine to quickly fix something during testing - if you need that, it's not a "quick fix" anymore).
