Have you actually used tools to create something in your country?

If so, what was it and when was it?
>>
>>222154420
I've made components out of copper sheets and wire for my models if that counts

>>222154420
I've build a wooden fence and porch at my parents house but its like nothing fancy simplest things

I built our coffetable and the island in the kitchen, a counter, enclosed a pasture for our goats, built henhouses, several guitar amplifiers and speaker cabinets. Mostly electronics and woodworking.

What's polyphony? Does that mean the keyboard has the sound generator?

I grew up around people doing woodworking and I went to school for electronics. I've got a house and a small shop with some tools and mostly I just use common sense. I'm not great at it or anything but I can make functional and durable stuff. I am really in to playing guitar but not into paying thousands of dollars to have the amps I want so I learned a good bit about vacuum tube audio circuits, which are much easier to build than more modern solid state or digital designs. I did have to do a lot of reading when I built my bass cab because there is a lot to go into those to make them have the extended low frequency response. Guitar cabs are much easier.

lol same

Here is a picture of my guitar amp and speaker cabinet. I also made the ugly thing on the top left which is a preamp for distortion. The thing on the top right is something I bought.
Picture taken on an old potato.

Out of all the skills you learned what is the most useful
>>
>>222154643
I'd say woodworking/carpentry because I have an old house that I like to modify to my inclinations. Being able to take out a wall and make it a bar or whatever and not have to pay some one for labor is great. Plus if we ever need some simple piece of furniture, I can do it.
Electronics is also handy but too much stuff is not meant to be repaired anymore.

I built a 'retard charger' out of a doorbell transformer and four diodes. because my "9 stage smart" charger would only charge perfectly good batteries. It's rescued like seven motorcycle batteries and one car battery that the Brain box wouldn't even try to fix.

no pictures. but here's the green light I got from the battery tender after charging one and letting it sit for a week.

Yeah, many things. I built simple pieces of furniture, shelves, I customed my home's entrance with wood paneling I painted, I customed many pieces of furniture (sanding, painting, adding new materials), I also customed my terrace with wood / slabs. I do small crafts like mosaic and other stuff as well.

And meanwhile I have absolutely no talents.

>>222154420
Nothing proper just a really really simple trellis and that kind of crap... Would never think of taking out a wall like you guys lol.

I've mainly just fixed things and glued them together with various glues due to stubbornly wanting to use everything until the very end of its lifespan. much to the dismay of globohomo, I hate shopping and I hate how new products tend to be of worse quality, as the world continues its decline towards chinkshit

I built a Morse code key from a set of schematics in an amateur radio magazine. It's the thing you use to send Morse code signals. I thought it would help motivate me to learn Morse code, which it kind of did.

I was also working on a old rusty shotgun at the same time, which is somewhat visible at the top of the image, but that device had other problems and didn't quite get fixed.

Without the Internet and electricity you find something interesting to do with your hands rather quickly. You just need a pause to a constant stimulation of your brain. After that you can go to the web to actually look up tips and tricks.
