The Coolest Floating DIY Lab!

So most of us DIY'ers have an assortment of tools, projects, and components lying around which we consolidate into a DIY lab. Some labs have all kinds of wacky and wonderful machines which get used less often than we'd care to admit, and others consist of the bare essentials required to build fantastic things. 

Not content to have an 'average lab', a make by the name of Steve Roberts has created his dream lab, wait for it, on a boat! It's a high-tech, floating lab that he can live on. That's the dream right? But despite possible disconnect that floating in the middle of the ocean may bring, the truth is far from an isolated maker.

His floating lab packs a punch with a gigabit internet connection, 3D printer, CNC mill, oscilloscopes and power supplies aplenty, plus plans to put a battery on board to compliment the current engine. A hybrid boat you might say.

He gave IEEE Spectrum a full tour, so for more info and inspiration, check out the full article.
