I want to make the sunrise alarm clock/simulator but I don’t know where to go to buy the materials and/or get help reading and understanding the circuit diagram. I know that radio shack used to be an electronic hobby shop but they’ve changed a lot – what stores can I go to that still serve this market? I live in Tacoma, Washington.

Career / hobby question?

i want to be able to design and make my very own circuits and write programs for them (not really for sale, much like a hobby),
i wanted to study electrical/electronic or computer engineering, but ended up studying Information Technology….so my question is….

is there a way i can achieve that knowledge without

1. spending 5yrs doing a second degree
2. doing that in my masters
3. going to MIT (obvious)

i mean, u know, something like a 1 year course, or some private institution like NIIT, i just want to be good at building my own chips….any ideas???
and i dont think self education will be a good idea for me….i need a live instructor or something

In other words what prompts it to go through the complete circuit without going straight to the other battery terminal?
Just started reading up on electronic and digital circuits for the summer and this question has been bothering me.

i want a circuit to delay the power on time of 12v circuit for half a second so that after half a second of delay the power steadly goes the way.
If precise time can not be attained, the timer may be adjustable so that i could adjust it by using knob. I am not an engineer or electronic professional. it should be simple "do it yourself" project

how to start with electronic hobby projects?

i’m a final year electronics engineering student,but i should admit that i dont have the required practical skills in my subject.All i know is some pure theory and some stupid equations.
I am really passionate about electronics, i like to start with hobby electronic circuits.
getting started is again confusing.if i start with the already designed ‘ready to make circuits’,will i be able to study the fundamentals of practical electronics?At the end will i be able to design circuits of my own?Will i be able to master it?
