FAQ

I've never made a circuit before, where do I start??
Not a problem. Our kits are designed for new learners of all ages. We recommend trying Paper Circuits and one of our eBooks to get started.

Do I have to learn how to solder?
No! In fact 99% of our kits and projects do not require soldering! 

What other tools should I have around?
Scissors, paper, tape, a ruler, some colored pencils. For our larger Micro:Bit and Arduino center Crazy Circuits Kits you'll need a computer for programming.  

Do you offer teacher discounts?
For sure! We offer wholesale and bulk discounts, especially for educators. Just shoot us an email and we'll get that sorted out for you.

Is there an actual brown dog?
Most certainly. She is as cute as she is lazy. We try and get her to model our products, but her lack of thumbs makes things difficult.
