What inspired this 15-year-old to pursue engineering and coding projects?

[Evil Genius]

I just wanted to greet my self.
I am 15 and am into coding as well as engineering.
Some projects i completed are Fume Extractors, Transformer Shocker, Joule Thief, and other stuff. I have basic engineering tools like soldering irons and stuff.
Got interested after watching Iron Man. So yea anyone want tot be friends.

Cool stuff, EG !

I have a 17 yo son whose much the same as you - really into the engineering.

For a science project, he just invented a contraption to fit into the front forks of his dirt bike, so that the shocks don't get compressed when it's tied down firmly on the trailer, during transport (apparently, having the shocks compressed for long periods is bad for 'em - or so he tells me). He made it out of PVC pipes, rubber stoppers, and two clamps - very cool !

Welcome.
