CNC cut from 12mm plywood. Maybe I should send a job application to IKEA?.
God dammit. Now I want a CNC machine.

Nice! Might I suggest you add something to keep the scope from sliding backwards on plug in events? I've pushed mine back too many times to count.

what have you learned so far at electric/electronics school?

woodworking
Not OP but when I got my first degree in electronics I wanted to go 50/50 to either woodworking or engineering, I chose the latter and continued to learn the former myself. Sometimes I regret that choice
My first thought from the thumbnail was a kids play station. I suppose that's exactly what it is though.
That isn't nearly value-engineered enough for IKEA. Try again, using cardboard this time.
(No offense meant to IKEA, BTW; in fact I'm sitting at a cardboard IKEA desk as I type this.)
Beautiful
Ikea won't take you unless you name it the Mjuuden or something.
Have you done the software unlock on the Rigol 1054Z? You can unlock all the licensed features. I did it on mine when I got it and it works great. Code generator can be found here https://www.gotroot.ca/rigol/riglol/
Pretty cool and neat. I would do a can paint job.
Is that a Riden 60XY clone at the bottom?
Afaik not a clone, because Joy-It/Conrad is the German reseller for Riden.
Ah okay, are you running the firmware from I believe UniSoft from the EEVBlog? I can only recommend it. I also did the WiFi module for better wireless performance etc. but I did not like the refresh rate and stability, so sick to the terrible form factor micro-USB.
What are people doing with their lab PSU that they need WiFi? For me it always was just an upgrade over fiddling with battery packs...
Logging data and visualization is the big one, but automation is also nice to have. Like cycling batteries can be easily automated that way.
Just to power something there is obviously no need.
Is this two oscilloscopes and a power supply?
