Electronics > Beginners
Something to see my signals with?

Age is mentioned in the last post.
I was just remembering I started my first company at his age. Ended up an emancipated minor less than two years later because between that and my art sales I was making more than the parents were.

I was going to mention than with this skills he could start fixing some things and make some money in a short time, then things will keep getting easier to stay in electronics and getting better at it.

That is a very good possibility. I think I should bring in Louis Rossmann as a role model. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCl2mFZoRqjw_ELax4Yisf6w It is interesting some of the adversities he had to overcome while growing up. He talks about them in some of his videos, but he kept trying and now he has a thriving business and a bunch of employees.

What I admire is the few tools he uses, a microscope, a DMM, soldering tools (iron and air) and stop counting, pliers and misc but no fancy stuff at all. And that's all he needs for the repairs, I haven't seen him using a scope, someone sent him an expensive thermal camera and he compared it with a bottle of isopropyl :-DD
I think one of the most valuable tools he has are the database of circuits (PCB+SCH), but that's very specific to what he mostly does and in some cases he didn't even have that.

OK , so from what I understand , this is a 13 year old kid. My advice to him would be to give it a couple more years before getting into
practical application of electronics. The most important part of electronics is really the math and physics , so keep on learning.
Arduinos and similar kits are fun but they don't really teach you electronics.
Oscilloscope is just a paperweight if you don't have a good theoretical foundation.
