JD here, just getting my forums started. Disqus comments engine was a bit too hard to navigate and made finding others comments too difficult. To remedy this, I thought it would be nice to get a forum started to make it easier to find help on specific topics. If you have a general question or want to say hello, do it here!

Hi, my name is Terrence but TJ is the name that stuck, I was an Automotive Electrician for 40+ years who was forced to retire medically but I just can not let go. My grandson asked me a question about a year ago, did I know how to program computers and I had to say no but I would look it up for him and I found Arduino and all that went along with it. He no longer has an interest but I was caught, hook line and sinker. I have always been very interested in electronics and over the years built hundreds of kits etc and still use amps and speakers that I built many years ago in my music room and TV room not to mention a tool box full of test equipment that I built and now I have a computer room full of rolling robots of one style or another, a couple are from your book and the third is underway. Anyway your book has been great fun and I have learnt a great deal from it, Cheers, TJ.

Hi Terrence,

I'm glad you liked my book, if you have any questions, feel free to ask!

My electronics journey really began with the Arduino. I needed something easy to understand and learn with and things just started making sense from there. 

Thanks for sharing,

JD
