Take a Look at the New Kid
« on: Wed, 24 July 2013, 16:11:10 »
Hey everybody!
I decided while I was bored last Saturday morning that I needed to find something to do in such instances of emptiness, something that was more productive and fulfilling than rifling through facebook and youtube.  I landed on building electronics, and the first thing I decided I wanted was a keyboard, so here I am, with no real knowledge or training but enthusiasm and a working brain  :cool:

Welcome to the insanity.
To doubt everything or to believe everything are two equally convenient solutions; both dispense with the necessity of reflection. -- H. Poincare

You're in the right place, for sure. Looking forward to your build thread. Be sure to post both tragedies and triumphs so everyone can learn.

Yea, I definitely recognize the staggering monetary component to all this  :-\, but I'm not in a rush, I've got a lot of planning to do yet. 

That having been said, I've got a few questions, should I be posting my "tragedies and triumphs" to the "build stuff together" board? And I've found a build on here I'm hoping to follow in strategy but not necessarily final design

But there's a lot I don't understand, is there a specific place for questions, or should they just be posted to the original build thread?

Yes, that's the right forum for build logs. You can post simple questions to the simple questions, simple answers thread in keyboards, or if it's a long or multi topic question, make a new thread for it in the appropriate forum.
