| 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. | |
| 16 | |
| 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? | |
