I gotta start somewhere!

groundFungus:
You can build a Polargraph with 2 motors. Pretty easy build and very interesting (to me anyway). Plus free firmware and software.

Polagraph is cool - I'm also thinking about mirrors that turn.

DANIU DSO188 Pocket Digital Ultra-small Oscilloscope 1M Bandwidth 5M Sample Rate Handheld Oscilloscope Kit - Banggood

Simple little scope, just doing some hardware mods to it, power switch and signal input socket not the most practical.

I saw them not too long ago. I was contemplating it as well, but found it slightly underspec'ed for what (I think) I need. Pricewise they looked very tempting.

My wife said it was my turn to do the Christmas day cooking.

I might try this, it would save a lot of time.

Reminds me of my bachelor days.

:o :fearful: really you eat it?

Would you start at the top or the bottom?
