Who had a Dick Smith 'Funway Into Electronics' kit? For many kids in the early '80s, this was the spark that ignited a lifelong fascination with electronics....and I was no exception.
Here is a book I wrote about Robots when I was in the 4th grade. It's a literary masterpiece with an insightful twist, generations ahead of its time.
Despite my early interest in electronics, life led me down other paths. But like any good obsession, it never really went away. I eventually found my way back to electronics as a hobby.
This site started off as a personal reference, but now I've opened it up for other novices to maybe get some use out of it too.
The site’s name is inspired by Laika, the Soviet space dog.
Let me clarify,I absolutely don’t condone sending stray animals into space to their demise. The name reflects the spirit of curiosity and experimentation behind those early space missions: launching into the unknown just to 'see what happens'.
That’s the same spirit that drives most of my projects - connecting wires, writing code, and 'seeing what happens'.
Enjoy,
Nat.
