Has anyone here ever heard of a totally blind ham building projects
from kits?  Is this a crazy notion?  If not, are there any sites with
good advice on how to get started?

Years ago, I actually did do a bit of kit building back when I could
see, so I am not going into this totally ignorant of what is involved.
 Perhaps it is not something that can reasonably be done by a blind
person, but I really loved the fun of building something that actually
worked back then, and it is a shame to miss out on it now because of
blindness.  Plus, I have always felt that, with enough aggravation,
anything is possible, so maybe building some simple projects is not
totally out of the realm of possibility.

Thoughts and suggestions appreciated.
