Notes

Making space here for what I hope will be a steady stream of beautiful kits from The Boldport Club.

It’s a club you can join by subscription and receive an electronics project every month.

But unlike the electronics clubs I remember from years ago - which tended to produce simplicstic kits for projects that while functional, few would ever really need, and they definitely weren’t designed for aesthetics - the focus here is on kits that are engaging, challenging, entertaining, and collectable.

This page is a web-friendly rendering of my project notes shared in the LEAP GitHub repository.

LEAP is just my personal collection of projects. Two main themes have emerged in recent years, sometimes combined:

  • electronics - usually involving an Arduino or other microprocessor in one way or another. Some are full-blown projects, while many are trivial breadboard experiments, intended to learn and explore something interesting
  • scale modelling - I caught the bug after deciding to build a Harrier during covid to demonstrate an electronic jet engine simulation. Let the fun begin..
To be honest, I haven't quite figured out if these two interests belong in the same GitHub repo or not. But for now - they are all here!

Projects are often inspired by things found wild on the net, or ideas from the many great electronics and scale modelling podcasts and YouTube channels. Feel free to borrow liberally, and if you spot any issues do let me know (or send a PR!). See the individual projects for credits where due.
