Hi everyone,
I am new in the club. I hope my email reaches you this time.

I am a PhD student in chemistry at Glasgow University and I am highly
interested in electronics as it is an important part of my work is the use
of different electric instruments and control them through the
computer(with labview or any other software). My next objective is to make
a mini elevator. So I need to use a small motor, a drive controller..

Is anybody in your group motivated to help me with that especially people
from the group "Leccie Knitters" or any other group. I promise to not take
lot of your time. Can you give me the contact of people that can help me.
Finally, I would like to say I am highly motivated to attend any workshops
related to electronics.

Thanks,
