"Yes" but far too many caveats until I document the build environment ... probably late this week with the RP2040 boards arrive.

I figured, for $6 it was convenient to get the kit with the stopper, various caps, tubing, retainer clips, and the check-valve.

My Hawaii would be followed by Borneo. Seems we have had similar adventures 🥾

We have all been there. My nemesis was the MXC4005XC - a 3-axis accelerometer. (for context, the capacitor and resistors are 0603)

A couple years ago, I ordered a few ItsyBitsy boards from @adafruit.com to learn about the SAMD21. They were great designs to start learning.

Ultimately, I ended up with my Coin M0 for my text adventure games and I designed it to also support CircuitPython 🤩
