Bench — Tools we built because we needed them

THE BENCH

SPECIFICATIONS, NOT ADJECTIVES.

Status describes project maturity, not commercial availability. Prices are illustrative catalogue modelling. No checkout is connected. Filtering is plain CSS, so the plates still sort themselves into place with scripting switched off.

6 INSTRUMENTS SHOWN

* ILLUSTRATIVE ONLY. NOT AN OFFER. ACCESS AND LICENCE TERMS ARE NOT YET PUBLISHED.

Bench catalogue: six instruments with platform, status, licence and illustrative price. Focusing or hovering a row unfolds the three parts recorded for that instrument.

SELECTION CHART / ALL SIX PLATES

Six instruments, one sheet.

Not one cell below is typed twice. The chart is generated from the same record the catalogue plates print, so a change to a plate changes this table. Rows answer the pointer; select a column heading to pin that column while you read down it.

Selection chart comparing all six instruments on platform, status, licence, illustrative price, and the number of parts, limits and run notes recorded. A final row links to each instrument plate.
