Okay, everyone, we are all done. Thank you for checking out this class. I hope you had a good time. I had a lot of fun. Uh, this was a great excuse for me. Teoh, make another circuit bench toy to add to my collection. I hope that you, uh, followed along and were able to make something cool on. If not, maybe you can revisit this class when you're ready, toe, actually do it all along with me. So thanks. Uh, check out some of the other courses. Have a good time. I'm gonna leave you with one very last piece of advice slash Caution. And that. Is that just because you know how to circuit Ben something now, that does not mean that you know how to wire the electricity in your house are very different things. What you know about circuit bending now is very rudimentary about the Elektronik side of it. We didn't really do anything with the electron ICS. You know, we connected some stuff when we made cool sounds. Don't try to like, you know, rewire your house. Based on the knowledge you learned in...
this class, you're going to hurt yourself very badly. and maybe burn down your house and more houses. This is a very foolish thing to you. So remember that what we wanted in this class was just really basic batteries, only kind of stuff. Um, when it comes to electricity and when it comes a circuit bending, we know everything we need to know. You can pop open anything. Now, find a couple spots, start connecting them together like little Jumper wire and see what happens as long as you obey the safety stuff that we talked about. Batteries, only things like that. So look for more stuff in your life, Teoh. Pull apart and circuit Ben and make cool sounds out of. There's a whole art to this. Look around online. You'll find people all over the place circuit bending really cool stuff. Remember I said very early on. I think the second video guitar effects pedals are great for circuit bending. You can actually, Here is like if you want to go pro with this, what you could do is you can circuit Ben affects pedals together so like you would connect some circuit inside one of them to another one, and you could make some insane effects that way. There's some really cool people that I know doing a lot of really cool performances with the's multi bent pedals. So check some of those out. Just Google around for that, you'll be able to find it. Okay, so that's all. Check out some of the other classes. If you had a good time, leave me a good review. I appreciate it. Otherwise, I will see you in the next class. Uh, have fun breaking your toys by

I am a complete beginner to this topic and I enjoyed watching the free live stream of this course. It taught me enough to get started with some ideas, although I anticipate I'll have to follow up with other YouTube videos to ensure I understand enough for different kinds of toys and techniques. Thanks!
