My home made computer deskSome of the things that have interested me.

My home made computer desk. The engine room of this web site. The dual work surfaces give good display height and the cable mess can be shut away behind the hinged flap.

Website started in 2003 and hosted until 2023 in my free 30MB web space at TPG.

All of the websites around 1000 images and text takes up less than 20MB.

TPG discontinued free webspace so the site is now hosted at low cost by Hostmate.
