The morning will be a kit building session and we are encouraging any members who have never been to a workshop and who have a kit they wish to build, to bring it along and there will be plenty of members willing to help with the process. I will bring some SMD soldering equipment to assist with any of those pesky SMD components that don’t have legs or wires! I will also bring a selection of kits that new members can practice on if they don’t have a kit available.
