What did I get myself into?
#12

Hi Brian and welcome,
>What did I get myself into?

Well it depends. If you mean expense wise would think abt $50 in parts barring anything major.
If you mean technically yes there is a bit of a learning curve but if you have the motivation and some skills like soldering wiring and such that's a big +. Don't really have broach the deep technical stuff unless you'd like to.
Things like small hand tools, wire cutters, small drill, dremel tool, nn pliers, nut drivers, volt ohm meter. Signal generator is nice to have too.
As mentioned before a lot help here self include so if you have any question we're happy to entertain them.

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
