I am going to pause and start on it on friday or saturday,
I will come back with a ll the details, I also want to do some more reading before going on further.
I have been told that bread board do create a capacitive effect. But if I am getting something good with the encoders, I guess should be able to get something good also without the encoders.
I just saw a similar kit here:

I might try them out just for fun
