it would be cool to have a regular thing like that that works like an electronics lab course and actually builds up your knowledge steadily so at the end you can actually plan your own projects. im guessing this is more along the lines of construction recipes to follow so you can declare yourself a ~~maker~~

still might be cool to get kids into electronics tho, depending on the presentation and effort put into the chosen projects

I'll do it cheaper by drop shipping random kits from DX. No existing arduino required either! Get a new $2 knockoff with every order!

Ugh, the glowforge. I bought that stupid thing without realizing it was basically a kickstarter and now I'm stuck waiting who knows how many months for a product I thought I was buying, :rip: my 250x:10bux:

I made a passing remark in a post about the beta program that this cruddy discourse software made browsing Dans posts a loving pain in the rear end and some idiot hug box dorks jumped all over it. This complete moron would not give up trying to get the last word and it was real sad for some mid 50s stone turner to be trying baby's first internet dunking and failing miserably
