Do you have some kind of subconscious awareness of interests you already have or know you eventually will take deep dives into at some point in life? (lemmy.world)

I mean like awareness that, just under the surface, there are deep explorations waiting for the right time and place to emerge; things you've set aside or placed on the back burner but will tackle eventually/many you already have tackled.

Are you deeply self aware of these interests like some kind of list? If so, are these interests deeply connected in your mind to your past explorations and interests like some kind of road map or branching tree structure of thought?

Idk what tools you've tried but there are some that are pretty easy to use. I personally enjoy LibrePCB, but I think Fritzing might be easier and it even has a protoboard thing that's really cool.

One thing I'd suggest, is learning how to do the schematics stuff first (if you don't yet,) I feel like this is what helps the most in understanding these tools. I don't have an electronics background, so this was holding me back at the beginning, now I find them super intuitive.

As a side note, be careful with those acids - aside of being dangerous to handle, disposing them improperly is super destructive to the environment.

The schematics are no problem for me, I've been drawing those by hand since the '80s.

It's the steps between that and generating the Gerbers that mess up my mind.
