Nice honor to Forrest Mims III on Crowdsupply by Star Simpson

This topic started as someone saying this was a ripoff.  They do not understand this is not about paying $40 for an LED flasher but this is a display to show off a little bit of history.   This is about history not about getting ripped off.  Great idea, wished I would have thought about it.  So I had to start a topic praising this.

BTW, Circuit Classics was recently featured in IEEE Spectrum magazine: http://spectrum.ieee.org/geek-life/history/classic-circuits-are-revived-as-diy-art

Couldn't you just make these on oshpark for far less?
I can understand this for a display piece though. Still can't beat a good ol' breadboard
