Hello Steemit! I posted in the wrong place last time, lets try again.

Hi! I'm Dawson,

This is a duplicate post because I posted this under "introducemyself" instead. My bad. Anyway...

I'm a poor college student who spends his free time working on vintage computers, playing video games, and playing music.

I have been in the process of restoring a computer from 1972, a DEC PDP-12. It's been going very well so far (might have just jinxed it... Oops). Almost everything is working that has been tested.

I haven't been doing a lot of writing lately for music, but I have been doing a lot of playing. I have been playing guitar for about 8 years and piano for 4. I have recently switched to learning Hammond organ and it's been a blast!

I like to combine my love for circuits and music a lot. So a while ago I was working on a MIDI encoder for an old keyboard, and recently I have been working on a vacuum tube overdrive pedal for my guitar.

I look forward to sharing my projects and things with the wonderful community of Steemit!

Haha, hi Dawson. Things like that happen. Anyhow, welcome to Steemit.

When I arrived on Steemit a few weeks ago I was very confused how this all works. I read through hundreds of articles about the dynamics of Steemit and finally wrote this The Ultimate Guide for Steemit Beginners: Money, Posts, Design, Topics, Bots, Behaviour, Community and Apps. I wrote it for YOU. Normally I wouldn't post my links into others comments unasked. But the massive positive feedback from my readers made it my mission to help newcomers finding this post quickly. Feel free to ask any questions. I will try to answer them all. I apologize if you are not interested in this and I will not further disturb you.
