I am pretty much in the same situation and I would definitely say
"GO FOR IT"!!!

I am now building my 11th MOTM module and I am finding it to be
much easier than I expected.

My background is in Business and Computer Science, and in school
I only had 2 elective courses in Basic Electronics (and these two
courses were NOT EE-level courses). If you are interested in Analog
synths, if you can solder half-way decently, and if you can follow
Paul's foolproof instructions, you should have no problems putting
together your own modular.

Like you, I have been quietly "lurking" behind the scenes of this
list. I have seen other people slammed pretty hard on other DIY
lists, so I am a little worried about asking the "wrong question".
There are definitely some people who know their stuff here, so I
feel confident in leaving the design problems to them.

I'm just happy to be finally getting the analog modular synth that I've
always dreamed of!
