You can find the actual product from one of the vendors from whom your kit item or hardware was sourced. Manufacturers often provide resources such as guides, instruction manuals, project booklets, drivers, downloads, and detailed descriptions on their websites.

Makers and hobbyists on outlets such as YouTube often detail incredible projects which can be found by simply searching for your kit or hardware by name!

Below we detail a few resources for specific items and kits; with concentration on the kits and projects we'll be doing hands-on in the classroom... but with a little exploration, imagination is the only limit to what you can make...!!!
