what is your favorite thing you have soldered / built?

i really like soldering kits. i belive this is how people who enjoy jigsaw puzzles feel when they get into the flow of one of those.

i have built some eurorack modules, but i am not in the mood for more eurorack modules right now.

the last (solderless) thing i built was the kit form of the mnt pocket reform, which was amazing. but obviously i am not building another one.

so do you have any tips for a fun, useful project for ambient boy?

a clock kit is probably a good idea!

i have recently been thinking that when i finally in the evening manage to get off the screen, cozy up on the cough and start reading a book, that it would be nice to be able to keep track of time (for when i have to go to sleep) without the device being able to distract me (looking at you smartphone).

so a cool clock project is not a bad idea!

@lislegaard so far, a vinyl audio preamplifier I made for my parents. The working Geiger counter I built is probably a close second.

I enjoyed putting together the RC2014 kit computer recently. Would definitely recommend if you're at all interested in ancient and obsolete CPUs and all that :)

@lislegaard@sonomu.club precision clock from mitxela is great

@ignaloidas @lislegaard
speaking of clocks, I wish someone within shipping distance was selling DIY kits for IV-18 clocks...
