Can studying physics lead to building a particle accelerator in your garage?

Hello, First I am going to start with an introduction. My name is maxwell, I just turned 16 years old and a freshmen (Yes, I got held back in 7th). I have always been the kid in the back of class that just put earbuds in and get crappy grades and known to be the "Stoner" (Never smoke or drank before), I have always been called into parent conferences.. sometimes 4-6 times a month, i have taken IQ tests and such but never really thought much of it. I recently started learning physics, As in the math side (I Started 2 Days ago).. I have always known what physics is and how it works but not the actual technical part of it. I have learned in the last 2 days about the acceleration of drop from gravity and all the scientific notation with in physics. (A few examples are.. (1.86E4) = 18,600 and all that type of stuff.. Like how to add, Subtract, Multiply and divide such.)
P.S I have been watching this guy so far - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL998613A92710000C

Me and my close group of friend have came up with some theories on Quantum Physics and Electro Dynamics (I think that's what its called) I personal have a VERY strong interest in particle accelerators, and the way matter and time works in a whole. Tomorrow we are buying the parts to build a mini 'Particle Accelerator" in my garage and we will be recording what happeneds. We in the future are wanting to see if we can make a small object break the sound barrier.

Enough about me.. I was wondering if anyone here has any suggestions on how one could become a Physicist in the future, And how i could leanr more and get to be hands on with in physics.

Thank you, Maxwell.

The "actual technical part" is a pretty big deal. Without knowing that, you don't really know much physics...
 
Welcome to the forum
 
Hello everyone, I was advised to join this community while seeking guidance on how to navigate the academic world as an independent researcher. My name is Omar, and I'm based in Groningen The Netherlands. My formal physics education ended after high school, but I have dedicated the last several years to developing a theoretical framework from first principles. My work focuses on a topological field theory (which I call Swirl-String Theory) that models particles as knotted vortex...
