Tutorial - How to make PCBs
Tutorial - How to make PCBs Posted on: 24.06.2010 by Keely Jurik If anyone is undergoing the mammoth task of creating your own controller this might be of interest (if you can't do it already of course).You can source a lot of the controller boards, but sometimes you need to create your own boards for buttons & pots etc. The one in the tutorial is for the Sparkfun Silicone Buttons. They only sell 4x4 PCBs for them and I needed 2x4's and 3x4's so had to make my own.

| Keely Jurik 25.06.2010 | Cheers guys, keep an eye on the blog, I'm just about to sit down over the weekend and get everything etched/soldered & connected. Still waiting on the cases to turn up, but it should be all up and running within the next week or two ready to drop into the cases when they arrive. |
