Hello All! New guy here
Posted: Wed Jul 17, 2019 10:43 am
Hey everybody. Wanted to pop in and say hi. I just joined the site after coming across some of Wermy's youtube vids.
I've been watching from afar, wanting to get into the DIY building world for a while. Just have been waiting to have the ability to create a decent workspace, do some research, etc before I dove in.
I've also been looking for a good project to sink my teeth into and the GBZ looks right up my alley. I have some experience soldering and I work in tech (AV) for a living so I have at least a reasonable background that will help in getting myself started. Been perusing here and a few sites looking for a solid All In One kit for the GBZ (I expect the Pi to be separate of course) if at all possible. I do understand that finding everything I'm looking for in one box may not be possible, but I'd love to get as close as I can. Does anyone have any recs?
My ideal situation would be to find a kit that isn't starting totally from scratch, but also not an "EZ" type kit that's basically just plug in connections, close it up, and go either. I'd like to do a build that doesn't require me to be an expert, but also provides enough of a challenge that I'll learn some things and improve my technique along the way.
Any help, recs, etc would be much appreciated.
