| Club members busy assembling walk around controllers. This
is
one of the projects carried out in recent times.
All together
20 controllers were assembled. Construction was over several club
nights. Most members had not tackled any electronic project
previously.
Apart from the odd suspect solder joint, easily rectified, all
controllers
were successfully completed.
