My wife built a 1/5 MOTM-800 EG and she had never touched a soldering iron.
Yes, the EG does work. :) You can do it. :) Personally, I use Fluke meters.
Not because there is anything wrong with the others, but my experience has
been they are bullet proof. I have a typical 3.5 digit great for most
applications (model 77 no longer made I have had it so long). I also picked
up a used 6 digit meter for my bench which I have enjoyed immensely for
matching resistors and precise work. However, new they are in the
$1300-1500 range. I found mine used in excellent condition for $275.

What makes is do-able is the simple fact that Paul has created the ultimate
kit. Great instructions, everything you need, and really good explainations
of the circuits.
