I started out a bit later taking apart the Atari and getting circuit kits from Radio Shack.
It was a lot of fun. I did a good number of electrical engineering courses as part of my computer engineering degree. Now with kids, I plan on doing small projects to pique their curiosity
- Tempest1981 7y agoI also remember Heathkit -- although I can't remember which came first, Radio Shack or them. Edit: wow, both were founded in the 1920s
- tmaly 7y agoI was really bummed out when Radio Shack went bankrupt. I kept my intro to electronics book I had as a kid. Pages are all yellow, but the activities are still amazing. I will start some of these with my daughter this summer.
