Tons of kits like this still exist now a days if you are into guitar playing. kits to build copies of long defunct pedals, or old school tube amps. a lot of fun to make your pedal board, and you can learn as much or as little as you want.

As a kit I cut my teeth on building a hero 1 robot from heathkit before I even learned to write cursive. I often tell people that just to up my geek cred. Luckily the drive to do nerdy things has never really left me.
