Illustrated with comic book-style panels, the handbook explains the basic principles of using a breadboard and then guides you through 10 fun and educational projects. Learning hands-on how to use a breadboard gives you a solid, introductory unit in fundamental electronics.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe included breadboard provides a platform on which to build a circuit and then deconstruct it for the next one. Because no soldering is required, the breadboard can be used repeatedly, for many different projects. The breadboard is the perfect platform for learning, whether at home or in the classroom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition, the components necessary to complete all of the projects in the handbook are included in the kit (9v battery not included).

We encourage you, though, to print the models on any consumer-level filament-using 3D printer.
