I love to watch Uncle Doug: https://www.youtube.com/user/Stratosaurus1
And Mr. Carlsons Lab: https://www.youtube.com/user/MrCarlsonsLab
Its soothing for me as well, as since I am in an apartment now I dont
really have the abiltiy to do much electronic tinkeriing.
Someday when i have a garage again!
