👦👋 It took us 2 hours to build the 16bit RAM last module from the /r/benEater 8bit computer. Fast forward to 40 secs. Hardest part so far! 7

Awesome parenting project!
Congrats! That’s a lot of focus for that age. My son and I have been working on the same project since the start of the pandmeic (he was 7 when we started). We’ve built the timer and ALU modules, but wiring the registers was too tedious for his patience at the time.
One thing that was great was building the 8-bit computer on LogiSim: A little more immediate feedback and easier to see what’s going on. Now that we’ve done that (and wrote a simple assembler in python), we’ll probably unshelve this project. Thanks for the inspiration to keep trying. 🙂
Great activity for father-son bonding time.
I started working on this module last night! I “cheated” and went with putting the boards together first and hooking up some of the bus early. Pretty sure I spent 2 hours just with the wiring. 🙁

this is awesome!!! any parents who read this- i wanna encourage you to offer this kind of project to ur daughters as well! i went to stem schools in middle and HS and i noticed in a lot of my peers that the boys would have a leg up just bc their parents assume their boys would like to do electronics/ stem related activities and the girls just never got asked. i just subscribed to your channel!! keep up the great work
Any links on where to acquire all the parts?
Kinda wanna do something like this.
