For the longest time my "desk" was actually an ex-Boeing workbench. It was made out of 3/4" and 1.5" MDF, covered in ESD melamine, with a 1/2" copper ground bar running across the top in front of the plug strip, which was attached to a hospital plug. There was also a 220 outlet. I bought it out of Boeing Surplus for $50 and got it home. I opened the drawer and found a manual marked "sensitive" describing procedures for testing the detonation circuits of the SRAM-II nuclear air to surface missile. I still have that manual somewhere. Looking back on it I'm undecided if someone was just not paying attention or if someone wanted to give a schmuck like me a thrill.
