1. iMac

27-inch late-2013 (I had to actually look this up).

2. MacBook Pro

Retina 15-inch late-2013 (I had to look this up too).

3. Some crappy Dell laptop

Don't even ask - it is used on another desk to do grunt work processing high-speed camera files and running old software.

4. Wacom Tablet

Could not live without this - I use it for editing, Photoshopping and, most of the time, even just as my mouse.

5. Big Lacie Drive

I think this is 20TB - there are other ones not even in the photo, hidden under the desk.

6. Another Big Lacie Drive

This one in a puny 4TB.

7. USB Hub

Not pretty, but necessary. And powered.

8. Lots of SD cards

Of course. Usually as big and high quality as possible... Buy nice or buy twice!

9. Cool little USB Drive

This goes on my keyring - it is so useful for transferring files. Seriously, buy one.

10. Countless portable hard-drives

I must have over a dozen, mainly for editing on the road and back-ups. main ones I use are Lacie, WD and Samsung. I like the durable Lacie Ruggeds best, but they cost more and the USB cable option is often more reliable than Thunderbolt.

11. Portable Wacom tablet

After years editing on the road with my trackpad, I finally got this for hotel room desks!

12. Yeti Blue Microphone

For the podcast and voice-overs.

13. Pop shield and soundproofing

Got this shield and some soundproofing to keep CGP Grey happy!

14. Calculator

This was bought for a jokey Numberphile unboxing video, but a big calculator with huge buttons is so much more useful than anything on my computer or phone.

15. Four-colour pen

Essential when I was at school and still super useful! Great nostalgia value.

16. A Lamp

Let there be light.

17. Rubik's Cube

I sometimes put this in ebay photos "for scale", but really I include it in photos and videos because nerds go crazy when they see unsolved cubes (I can't solve them!)

18. Periodic Table mousemat

Actually useful, but this one does not have element names so I sometimes turn my head 180-degrees and use the huge one on my wall - just to be sure.

Software is obviously too numerous to mention, but I edit on Avid Media Composer and use Photoshop all the time!
