This class is still in the design phase. We have a brand new lab which is great. But this lab comes empty. We have gathered together the foundation of both an electronics lab as well as a tooling shop. But usually there is only one of each tool. With this class growing that means long lines and working out of class.

Students will have to supply their own material for each project as well as aquire a certain amount of their own tools -

Digital Multimeter
Jameco 136590 $69.95

Third Hand Soldering Aid
Jameco 26690 $5.95

Wire
22AWG solid core hookup wire is best for breadboards.

Xacto Kit
