As someone who makes a lot of PCBs you'd think after having built like 4 of these I'd just make a PCB instead of point to point soldering each one. But it's also kind of fun to just clip, solder, and go.

These are WLED controllers for my Christmas light show. I use old telephone trunk wire.

This is actually a great idea, I honestly kind of forgot I could rewatch it, somehow.

I bought a Wilton years ago when I got mine. Outside of a Fireball Tool vice, they are pretty good.

I just had to tap about 40 holes. I bought a gun tap and threw it into my 1/4" impact driver and hoped for the best. They were 1/4-20 in 1/4" mild steel, and all of them came out great, and quickly.

Very interesting data. I usually slap some polyamide tape on there and hope I forget about the project before it falls off.

My understanding is that it's both. But the correct way is kigh-cad, of course.

Printed pen mount for the CNC is working like a champ. Now the question is, can I cut out a shape and appropriately register it so it can draw my paint lines on it?

I approve

How else would the pick and place know where to put them? Haha!

Yeah, can you imagine releasing this to manufacturing? I mean... Sometimes caps have to go where they have to go but...
