Hi GigiG,
I hope you are well.
I have, "sort of", made a start. I am still waiting for the proto-board. It's on a slow boat from China! Everything else I have. So far the only set back I have had is that I cannot solder the wire I bought.
, I'll visit the local electronics shop on Saturday and see if I can get some decent 4 core.
My wife is going back to the UK next Thursday, so I have some painting to do, mix and pour the concrete for my pier, and build the proto-board if it arrives. Thanks to your site it all seems straight forward. Famous last words.
I'll post some images once there is something substantial.
Phill
