    Ben probably won't read this but I would like to thank him anyway.
    When I first started watching the show I think i was 11 years old. (I started watching around 2013, I'm sixteen now). English is not my native language so at the time I didn"t understand much. However I truly think that watching TBHS every friday has helped my english evolve. I remember always looking out to friday, not only because of the weekend, but also because of TBHS. Ben thank you! Thanks to your show I got into electronics, I bought a soldering station and some velleman kits and started poking around. I even got into 3d printing thanks to TBHS. You have made my life a little better, and you have taught me many things when it comes to electronics. I understand and respect your decision, sometimes change is needed for a human to thrive, however I am still sad to say this is the end of an era. Of course the show stays, and I would also like to thank the whole cast for making the show professional. Especially Alyson in the beginning (I was happy to see her appearance in the PieFace sketch aswell), and Felix later on. Words can't describe the respect I have for you guys. So ben (or anyone of the cast), If you ever feel sad about leaving the show, don't worry. You have already left behind a legacy. And I am truly thankfull of every minute of TBHS content I watched. I am certain that I will still hear about Ben and a new adventure he has taken on. Many, Many thanks for making youtube a better place.
    Sorry for this long incoherant rant.
    Kind regards,
    Vincent

      Fancy Teeth The end of one era and the beginning of a new. Ben blazed a trail, and I'm honored to pick up the torch for him--he just left some awfully big shoes to fill!

    I remember watching you every day at lunch. I have watched you for over 7 years a looked forward to every video. You sparked my love for small electronics. I can thank you enough for the joy you have brought me with you videos as well as the path you have led me down with technology. I will forever miss your calm and funny personality. Thanks for all the videos over the years. I’ll miss you 😢😭

    Was a great last episode to end the era of TBHS. To the whole cast: Thanks for all of the memories and everything you taught us. Thanks for all of the amazing hacks, inspired designs, and the thing I will miss most of all: the regrettable acting! Thanks for slugging through each week to provide us with entertainment. Good-bye ...

    • @MichaelBerthelsen
      @MichaelBerthelsen 6 лет назад

      sjm4306 The show will go on, just without Ben. So the content will probably change a bit, but I think there will still be content.😅

    Thanks Ben, for may years of innovative projects engineering and more! Not to mention the regrettable acting!
    Through your channel i found my love for electronics, today (after 8 years of watching your videos) i have an entire room in my house dedicated to making things, you truly inspired me to build and learn.
    I'm really gonna miss you!

    Wow I honestly didn't think it would hurt this bad it's almost like losing a best friend this is the end of an era with been gone don't know who's going to fill those shoes don't know what words to explain how incredible you and your whole team is and the countless times of inspiration or we're surprisingly one small segment of one of your builds helped me with a completely different build I was doing love to hear that you're writing and Hope we can still see you vlog the interesting things you do in your life thanks again!!!

  • @endarios8060
    @endarios8060 6 лет назад

    Boy oh boy... no more Hot Pocket Controller, no more Pinballs, no more portables of Machines we almost forgot... no more Rewiring, no more jokes I usually don’t get, no more famous acting... that all makes me sad.
    Thanks to ALL of you for the show, the education and the fun you brought us.
    I am from Germany and my English improved so much watching this channel in the past years and so did my interest in electronics and making. I sadly neither have time or skill enough to create things on my own, but you awakened a part of my heart and my brain that I never knew I had.
    Thanks and have a good one!!!

  • @deeredude
    @deeredude 6 лет назад

  • @hitmiccs
    @hitmiccs 6 лет назад

    Hey Ben, I was hooked on your projects, portables, hacks and everything since I discovered you old website years ago. The idea of making handhelds out of (at least my favourite, the 800XL was my first computer ever) game consoles was incredibly awesome to me and I followed your path to youtube and watched every episode ever since. You made a lot of cool inventions and designs and explained things in such detail to make it understandable - I think that's why so many people will miss you and the "things" you created. I hope you'll be happy in whatever future project you'll be working on and stay creative. I hope that electronics bug bite does not lose its effect ;) Good bye - you will be missed.

  • @matthewmillaisgray
    @matthewmillaisgray 6 лет назад

    Dear Ben, let me express please a personal appreciative word of much thanks to you and the team along with the many other expressions from people everywhere here drawn to your unique and very special contribution in this sector of electronics. The expression 'to keep lightning in a bottle' is reminiscent of what this show has with you in these recordings. I am really saddened by the conclusion of this but grateful for what has been made and hope your talent is rewarded well in the new chapters of your life course whatever that may be- Warm greetings from the Cape of Good Hope Peninsula, South Africa!

    Great video. I cut my teeth on a trusty old Atari 800 I bought on layaway when I was 15 at the local K-Mart. I think it was like $127. The 1050 disk drive that I had to get later was like $180.
    Had a TI 99/4A for about a year before that and out grew it quickly.
    Seeing these old 8-bit videos brings back so many memories.
    Went on to an Atari ST....STacy....TT/030... Then on to countless PCs that I now use for work. Can't remember 1/5th of the PCs, but will ALWAYS remember my Ataris. Computers were more personal back then. Now, they are like a hammer or screwdriver to me.
