Over time, I have collected a decent set of equipment, tools and supplies that has served me well and, in some cases, not so well. I created this page to list some of the better options I’ve come up with (excluding the not-so-great options). I am not a professional electronics engineer. I am a hobbyist. So the equipment, tools and supplies I list below fit accordingly. For example, the oscilloscope that I use cost me a few hundred dollars (USD) to purchase – not several thousand.
I truly hope you find this list useful. If you know of any equipment, tools, or supplies that I should check out and review, please let me know!
