I think I'd enjoy the sort of company that would require an oscilloscope at a barbecue.

Indeed. Reminds me of the book by Jim Williams on analogue Design via anecdotes. There was a picture in there of a broken Tektronix 453, lab notebook, tools, pizza and coke and a caption saying “life doesn’t get much better than this”.
I would go to that party.
Indeed there's an oscilloscope on my kitchen table right now; at the other end are placemats. This doesn't seem absurd.
My 3D printer lives on the kitchen counter. Right next to the toaster and stand mixer.
If you print ABS or PC, look into proper ventillation. Known carcinogens present in the fumes.
Proper ventillation for my home-residing 3D printer is the bathroom. Close the door and hit the fan.
You can guess when the idea hit me... :D

Feel like it should be next to the pasta machine :-)
Your kitchen sounds like mine!
When I was in college, the local robotics club had an annual barbecue with several oscilloscopes in attendance. Definitely one of the best events every summer.
