The Learning Journey
The Learning Journey
The subscription has been designed to take you from the basics of electronics and soldering through to more advanced projects, with each kit building on the skills you've developed along the way.
You'll start with simpler projects that introduce the fundamentals, then gradually move on to more complex circuits, components and techniques. As you progress, you'll encounter a wider range of components and learn how they work together to create increasingly interesting and functional projects. You'll also receive new electronics tools as you progress and learn how to use them (more info on this below).
The aim isn't just to build a collection of kits — it's to build your skills and confidence with every project. Each new kit gives you an opportunity to:
- Learn new electronics concepts and techniques.
- Develop your soldering and assembly skills.
- Work with different components and circuits.
- Build on skills learned in previous projects.
- Take on progressively more challenging projects.
By working through the sequence, you'll gradually develop the knowledge and practical skills to understand what you're building rather than simply following instructions.
Your Toolkit Grows as You Progress
Your Toolkit Grows as You Progress
As you progress through the subscription, your toolkit grows with you. Each time a new tool or material is needed for the projects ahead, it's included with your subscription — so you're gradually building a more complete electronics toolkit as you build your skills. This means you won't have to try to figure out what tools you need, since we've already done this for you.
You'll start with the essentials (a soldering iron and solder wire) and add to your toolkit as you progress, meaning you won't need to buy a whole collection of tools upfront. Along with tools, you'll also receive regular top-ups of solder wire to ensure you have enough for every kit you receive.
What's Included in Each Delivery?
What's Included in Each Delivery?
The kits, tools and materials included with each delivery are detailed below. As you progress, your toolkit grows alongside your skills, with new tools and materials added when they're needed.
