[sdiy] New kit review: Chopping Kinky, a wavefolding module by Befaco

[Elain Klopke]

I was under the impression that kits were DIY... since you have to assemble
them yourself. And I for one like to see what's in the kit and how it goes
together. But that's just my two cents.

And here I'm going to jab a badger with a spoon, but aren't mailing lists
like the original social media? Like dating back to when people actually
used the Post Office (I'm allowed to joke about it because I work there...)?
