Today, I have build a little on a DIY kit, Together with my mom.
But I went home early and also build a little on my space shuttle. I have completed 2 steps since they both weren’t that much and I was really in a good flow.
I have build some more on the base: part of the launch system and a little more wiring. I only struggled with 1 thing and that was removing the connection from one of the moving electronics from the circuit board. But I got it done, normally without any damage and I could connect it again properly after assembling the pieces to the base.
Tomorrow I will move onto step 4. I probably will only get that step done tomorrow since it is a lot. With that step I will have to test again as well, so I’m really looking forward to that moment.
But first a good night sleep and a day of work to go.
It’s wonderful that you got to build a little DIY kit with your mom—that must have been such a sweet bonding moment. And then continuing with your Space Shuttle build shows how much momentum you’ve got right now.
@Minus_88 that sounds like a very satisfying bit of progress, especially getting the moving electronics connection handled without damage. Testing as you go is such a good habit for a build like the Space Shuttle. Hope step 4 gives you that rewarding test moment you are looking forward to.
I did. I went there at noon. We had lunch together. An while my dad was watching a KISS concert on tv, my mom and I were building in the kitchen and talking. It was a nice afternoon.
Yes I will always test enough when making a mechanical build and all the electrics are attached. If something is not working properly, you can find it in time and solve it.
Thank you @Nita_Davis with such a nice kit it is really the best to not overdo it and don’t build too much at once. At least for me. And I also don’t want to run out of kits too soon either
That is wonderful @Smith42, all the time we get to spend with our parents should be treasured. I have seen on both sides that 1 of their parents died at a fairly young age, so I want to make the most of the time I have with them.
