No I'm not. I see on there instantly: Expensive, poorly designed decade resistance boxes that use pissy little SMT resistors that will catch fire if you have an accident rather than get a little warm: https://www.tindie.com/products/Atlanta_Robotics/decade-resistance-box/ https://www.tindie.com/products/Atlanta_Robotics/decade-resi... What the fuck? Multimeter anyone? https://www.tindie.com/products/Steves_Hobby_Store/the-stoplight-12-volt-dc-polarity-testerchecker/ https://www.tindie.com/products/Steves_Hobby_Store/the-stopl... Flashing crap, most of it no better than $2 chinese plastic junk: https://www.tindie.com/products/category/wearables/ https://www.tindie.com/products/category/wearables/ This is precisely what I don't want to see and I wish people would stop worshipping.

    I'll give you the last item, but the rest are junk. Sorry. I would rather, for music, use http://www.paia.com/ http://www.paia.com/ or http://www.doepfer.de/ http://www.doepfer.de/ for example.

      Doepfer are well outside the price range of experimenters. Some of their analogue kits are eye-wateringly expensive for what they are.

    Hard as it may be to believe, there's a difference between things that don't interest you personally and things that are junk. And the existence of things that don't interest you somewhere does not automatically mean that everything there is crap. Don't see the sort of kits you like being made? Join us! Innovate, and design your own!
