Edit: so it turns out that every hobby can be expensive if you do it long enough.

Also I love how you talk about your hobby as some addicts.

    Tinkering with electronics. Like, breadboards, integrated circuits, transistors, microcontrollers.

    I’ve got a tacklebox full to bursting with components and parts worth probably close to a grand.

      I used to be there… now I’ve got three sets of shelves from Costco full up of boxes, bins, trays, tools, bits, and bobs. Finding used electronics bench devices like power supplies, multimeters, oscopes, and soldering stations is an ongoing effort to do at a reasonable price point.
