Posted - May 31 2009 : 9:39:04 PM Hi Everyone,
I am very new to this and am eager to learn. I have always been a tinkerer so I think this is just a natural progression of my desire to understand how things work. I have already built a couple basic projects. I want to eventually build some things without having to think so hard. Can you recommend a good source for learning material,and a good source for bits and pieces. I always buy stuff from radio shack but there has to be a good source that is less expensive. My last question is what software are you all using to draw out your projects. Thanks in advance Mago Matto
