Dear Ben,
I recently became a fan of your show while browsing the internet and I came across the video of the slotloading NES. I thought it was the coolest NES mod ever! I noticed all the projects you did, watched a lot of your videos, and realized the complexity of all these projects that you do. I wanted to do some of these things on my own but I'm limited as to what I can do. I'm familiar with how to use a soldering iron, also I'm taking a computer science class in highschool so I have the ability to code and I really want to take a stab at a project but I can't think of any. So basicaly I'm asking you and the community at Element 14 if you have any ideas for a basic project to do. Something simple that would be fun and practical. Also something relativly low cost. If you or anyone else has any idea please let me know because it would be awesome to just get my feet wet with a small project so I can get going and soon come up with my own ideas and share them with others.
