If you enjoy my technical videos, then this is an opportunity to show your appreciation by buying me coffee and cookies (I like cookies) One of the most important things about Patreon is that it gives me an independent communication channel from YouTube so that if things go wrong or I'm VERY naughty and YouTube pull the plug on my channel then we can still stay in touch and you still get to see my videos on a different platform.
Since the great Adpocalypse of 2017 the YouTube advertising algorithm has not favoured "dangerous" technical and scientific channels and has given priority to trendy vloggers and fashionistas. For the technical and scientific creators Patreon offers greater independence from YouTube, allowing us to make more interesting videos without fear of being punished.
My videos will always be available to view free. I've no intention of ever putting them behind any form of pay-wall and specifically only allow YouTube to put ONE skippable or pop-up advert on my videos. (Because multiple adverts are just plain annoying.)
All Patreons get early access to my videos as I make them, and sometimes encourage me to re-record specific videos with improvements. This also lets you grab particularly good gadgets on eBay before the rush if I find a particular gadget to be very good.
Please only contribute what you can comfortably afford, and feel free to adjust it down at any time if things get a bit tight. I've been through the "living off noodles" era myself and know that every technical career has its ups and downs. No matter what you pledge you still get full access.
If you want to be extremely generous because I've helped launch you into a new career or inspired you in darker times then I'm fine with just a few dollars and would rather you used the cash to buy yourself some new test gear or components. The biggest reward you can give me is to tell me that I helped you.

The supremely generous sandwich/beer option.
$5 or more per month
This option gets me a sandwich from Subway or a beer at a local bar.
Goals
100% complete
This goal will result in PCB files for projects being made available for you to download and make your own PCBs. The software to let you print them off accurately will be a free (safe) download from the maker of my chosen PCB design package.
