5 Following is a test... |
5 When I am not in front of my laptop doing some software related stuff, |
|
6 I do sometimes find the energy to do things with my own hands... I've |
|
7 enjoyed to hack eletronics since I am 12 or something like that. At 14 |
|
8 I had a scope in my room. I also started to hack my Amstrad CPC-6128 |
|
9 back then. Beginning to write code, first in BASIC, then in Z-80 |
|
10 assembly code. |

11 |
|
12 I've never made something really serious in electronics, mostly |
|
13 repairing stuff, built my own Nelson Pass hifi power amplifier, but I |
|
14 finally made my life hacking computers. The discovery of the FOSS |
|
15 movement changed me, and is now an essential part of my life. |
|

|
17 More recently, I began to play with more substential |
|
18 hardware. Starting with a very small chinese milling machine (a Vario |
|
19 BF16) and a cheap inverter welding machine, I began to learn (mostly |
|
20 by myself) some elements of machining. |
|
21 |
|
22 Then I had the opportunity to acquire and install (thanks to my |
|
23 sister offering me a part of a newly acquired grange to welcome a |
|
24 couple of more serious machines) a few machinist toys I am, very |
|
25 slowly, reconditionning. |
|
26 |
|
27 I'd like to try to write kind-of journal of my experiments with my |
|
28 "grouwn-up toys", being electronics or machinist related. An maybe |
|
29 some other subjects as well, who knows? |
