Hobbyscoop

Philips has published a magazine, called Hobbyskoop, from 1968 to april 1980, about 31 issues and 4 specials, devoted to the do-it-yourself audience of the many lines of kits, like the electronic kits shown on these pages. Available in electronic shops and on subscription.
Of interest is the information published on the kits like EE8/20 to EE2xxx series. Pricelists, ordernumbers, variants, much can be seen on these pages.
Here I show the pages of interest from Hobbyskoop.

My EE8

I made a complete scan of my original EE8 manual and templates. I got the kit at age 14 and it is the only EE8 kit still in my possession. As complete as possible by scavenging other incomplete EE8 kits. With detailed photographs of the kit itself.

My EE8

As a boy of 14 year I was given an EE8 kit. And it opened the world of electronics for me! The Pionier kit was fun to build, used a lot to listen to the radio, but hardly made me study or do experiments. The book and the experiments did! Especially the colorful book, with explanations of concepts, clear pictures of the experiments and the template system worked for me.

The original kit did survive till today, more or less. Though many parts were damaged, reused or lost. Buying of other incomplete EE8 boxes allowed me to do a restoration (some alien parts still in the box!) and this is (with the original Pionier) the only kit still in my possession. The book and templates (blue ink on grey carton) did survive (the EE1 and EE2 template alas were lost and replaced with the black and white versions of newer kits).

Philips Hovercraft VE 2001

Not really a kit, more a toy: a miniature hovercraft. I once had this toy, but sold it quickly because it did not fit in my collection. I recently found some brochures and photographs and devoted a page on it here.
