Hard waiting


You must know, Helder is a robot android sent here from a planet of extreme beings and he is here to spread his greatness of circuit boards n such.Ford873 wrote:Luckily I managed to get one in your last batch so won't be greedy and will wait until the next batch to get another for my brother.
Can I ask though, I am very interested in learning to design boards like these. Are you guys self taught? Is there a good website to learn from or get any tips from that you have used? Also, where can you get the boards printed and made cheap without having to buy a huge quantity??
Would it be of interest to anyone else to start a proper forum thread to help each other learn? I am sure I am not the only one interested in this?
I learned on my own with a few tutorials on youtube on how to use eagle, it showed the basics and from there it just came down to practice and learning all the different rules that board houses go by. I do have an electrical background and electrical repair experience so it helped understanding things as well as reading schematics.Ford873 wrote:Luckily I managed to get one in your last batch so won't be greedy and will wait until the next batch to get another for my brother.

If there is a subforum opening up for this I'll help out for whoever wants to learn plus Seth has offered his insight too, he is an Electrical Engineer by profession so has alot more knowledge than me.
As for the boards they're all gone but next Wednesday I'll be opening up a preorder for the next batch so tune in then.
