my main problem is I don't have any kind of physical platform. I have a big bin of various lego kits, but no mindstorms.
I guess I could look at getting an erector set.
considered going with the servocity brackets like /u/simsalapim promotes, but that's way more than I want to spend and I'd get more from the erector set.
edit: erector set bought, as well as a bunch of random circuit bits. amazon got me on the check out. 50 16MHz oscillators $4, 50 555timers $3, 100 potentiometers $4, 100 2n2222 transistors $6. all free shipping. all useful things to have on hand and since I don't work at a tech place anymore I can't just "borrow" parts as I need them.
So many replies, but I haven't seen Meccano anywhere.
I know it says 8 on it, but my family was tired of me taking other things apart in order to have materials to build other things. Here is an example kit, but there are many variations
Eh, maybe an Erector set?

It's all screws and Allen tools. They were not easy to put together when I was a kid....
