Shit... you could stock a hobby shop couldn't you?
You got room to start a hobby club or join one? Helpers! Divvy out some parts for the work, provide caffeine, get to know each other and it'll be done in no time. You even don't mind giving some away so where's the lose but some time spent with others who share the hobby?
Teach soldering. Each time you +1 the number of parts buyers, right? Teach epoxy but check out super glue and baking soda (gets HOT briefly, gets hard, can be molded)
How long ago did you go off radar? I thought we lost you for a while there.
