Hiya 'pist on emun'!Couple* words of advice:
- stay away from the bar if you ever want to take any of these characters seriously again!
- start out slowly. Don't try to make your final project first. It WILL take longer that way.
- HAVE FUN!
- for large values of 'couple'
Not sure about slowly. As most others launching into this type of thing I needed a solution to a specific problem and need to get there at speed.
Being British and obviously as daft as a box of frogs I have inadvertently become involved with a steampunk group. Its basically people dressing in victorian costume and making idiots of themselves. Think of the film 'The Wild Wild West' without cowboys.
My costume includes a coal fire and boiler back pack, a steam driven shoulder parrot and a large Stevenson's Rocket type chimney that blows out smoke rings. All driven by an arduino.
I know, I know. Numb as a p stone.
