    my first successful product at the age of 12-13 was a "meow" generator that produced a cat's meow.

    I do not throw away the cut-off leads of the parts, but put them in a box and later use them as jumpers on printed circuit boards or mock-ups and for repairing printed conductors on the board.

    I bought a bunch of Soviet era PNP germanium transistors on EBAY about seven years ago. I also got a bunch of germanium diodes also.
    Great project!

    A box of 1950s germanium transistors. Any Soviet portable radio from c 1960. Soviet germaniums can be bought by the bag load… Well were available pre invasion.

    It transmitted for 22 days.

    A fun fact: in russian language Sputnik (pronounced spootnik) means a travelling companion. It is also used in space terminology to mean a satellite. So the expression "sputnik satellite" is basically "an oily oil".
