From the Bench

To Make or Buy - Why not do both?
Greetings
It's a common dilemma faced by hobbyists.  Even with the lower costs of components, building a project can often be many times the value of an off-the-rack solution.

Then, again, where is the satisfaction and personal pride in just handing over the hard-earned ?  We, at KitStop, recognise that not everyone has the time to put together the bits and bobs of a project.

That's why we are adding to our range of pre-assembled functional units that can be put together to  tailor larger systems in less time and at lower cost than  starting from scratch. 

Our MXA series of assemblies have helped many customers save time in project outcomes. In response to demand, we will be adding more FA (Assembled) versions of our FK series to the KitStop range. 

In addition we are adding exciting new modules such as RF and IR remote controls and the brilliant D8 -HB  Range of 7 Segment LED displays

As ever, if  there are Dick Smith kits that you have been using and you cannot find a near equivalent here, we may be able to assist, quantities and information permitting, in continuing your supply.

As the school year approaches its end we'd like to acknowledge the help and support we've received from  teachers and mentors.  To them we say a big THANK YOU, and to you we say - try us for value and support.

If it has been a while since you visited us, take a look as some of our newer products like the very versatile Two Channel Remote Control pair that was featured in the October 2012 Silicon Chip

Join us in the fun that is.... ELECTRONICS!!
Cheers
