Recently I have stumbled upon some videos from Ben Eater showing and explaining some interesting projects on breadboards. For example building a computer based on the 6502 CPU: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnzuMJLZRdU
I have never heard about breadboards before, unfortunately. As a child I was interested in electronics, but I was not very keen on soldering stuff, and I didn’t have tools or knowledge. So it’s my second chance to start experimenting, so I decided to follow Ben Eater’s videos and build stuff. I have even found a partner for it: my son.
I have ordered some stuff yesterday afternoon. I have found the breadboards suggested by Ben Eater in a dutch online shop, eleshop.eu, much cheaper than on amazon. They are now on the way, expected to arrive on Thursday. The rest I have ordered on reichelt.de, but there you cannot pay with credit card, so I had to transfer the money from our bank account. And as today was a public holiday in Germany, I expect the transfer and the delivery taking a bit more time.
