grrr I will hold out for a course in March some time, or Bring my kid down on an open in March so he can learn.

I will host a soldering class on March 7 with the TV-B-Gone.

Thanks Dan - that’ll be awesome.

@Big_Mak we’ll get your kid sorted before then so he can make a tv-b-gone at Dan’s workshop if he wants.

Just what he wants, to produce a tool his parents can use to shut down the TV. Does it work with 3DS’?

LOL. No no. The device is for turning off the TV when your parents are watching it so you can play Ps4.

There are only a few spots left in this workshop so RSVP now to claim yours.

The workshop is full! Thanks to everyone who has responded. And if you missed out, another beginner soldering event is coming up in March:

Also don’t forget, you are always welcome to come down on a Tuesday open night to use our soldering equipment and supplies. Badge kits are also usually available in the vending machine.

Nice work, Janet. Well done!

Thanks Dan and thanks for offering a TV-B-Gone night. I’ll be plugging that for sure on Thursday.

Reminder! This event is tomorrow! See you at VHS.
