Silly Job Title: Phase Phaser. I am the Phase Phaser!

In this video we take a look at what arrived in the mail:

We use the Peak Electronic Design Atlas ZEN50 Zener Diode Analyzer to test our Zener diodes.

We use the Bosch IXO VI Electric Screwdriver and Accessories to install our ESD strap monitor.

We use the Jackcat Electric Scissors to cut the box for the scrapbook.

We use the Brother P-Touch D210 Label Maker to label our drawers.

We use the Bysameyee Head-Mounted Magnifier to illuminate the area under the desk while installing the ESD monitor.

We use the Scotch Titanium Scissors to cut, cut, cut.

We use the Hakko CHP 3C-SA Precision Tweezers for precision tweezering.

We use the Plato Model 170 Wire Cutter to cut old zip ties.

We use the Victorinox Swiss Champ Red Swiss Army Knife to open our envelopes.

We use the Kaisi S-160 45x30cm Repair Mat as our workspace.

And as promised here is a happy snap of the component drawers for my Zener diodes:

A photo of John's Zener component drawers, they are small and there is 30 of them.

The green stickers indicate jellybean component which I tend to have a lot of.
