My setup is in an old garden shed I've converted to my tech studio.

I added insulation, radiant barriers, lighting, air conditioning, and have three 3d printers, a laser cutter, and a workstation for my laptop with a wide-screen monitor along 2 sides, and a workbench and tool wall on the third.

Whole conversion probably cost about 1200 in materials, and it's amazing.

3 3d printers, a laser cutter, a workstation, a wide screen monitor, and an ac for under $1200?

Just trying to figure out what exactly that $1200 covers.

$1200 was for a mini-split AC, plywood, insulation, and some Ikea Skadis boards to convert the shed.

They did say just the conversion cost that much. The most expensive thing was probably the AC unit to convert it into a nerd studio. The rest of the stuff is what you place the now-converted room.

Yeah.The laser was about 2k and the printers are about 1200 between them.
