I'm looking for a company that builds kits for someone taking electronics courses to practice building and soldering circuits together. Heathkit used to do this but are there any new companies that have good projects to build?
Any good electronics kits or intermediate hobbiests?

If another person posts to this NG (or any other) spelling "hobbyist" as "hobbiest" I will possibly, in emulating the late Herr Hitler, do something very nasty indeed to some poor defenceless carpet.
In Australia we have Altronics, Jaycar, and Dick Smith who all produce kits for varying skill levels based on projects from Silicon Chip magazine and other sources.
Other countries would surely have hobby kit supplies as well.

Well, they're superlative, don't you see:
Hobby, Hobbier, Hobbiest. ;-)

In our electronic courses we use Elencos AM/FM Radio Kit and Training Course (AMFM108K ) and Deluxe Full Function Digital Multimeter Kit (M2666K ). See

When using a world-wide medium, it might benefit you to state your general location (especially since your provider makes an effort to strip out any geographic information).
