I've been pretty quiet lately! Conference season pretty much wrapped up after the 16th, and I've continued the headlong #KiCad / #PCB design streak I started a couple months ago.
Since fixing my @kicad setup ~3 weeks ago, I've done...
- 2 new #Charmware designs (will post tests soon!)
- Upgraded my #ESP8266 programmer planchette! (ordered yesterday)
- New modified Joule Thief board for the holidays! (ordered tonight)
...And various other things, like this #Hades gem concept :D
Happy place. <3
One of the Darkness gems from Hades, redrawn as a potential PCB design: white (silver HASL coating), black (silkscreen), purple (solder mask), and darker purple (copper under solder mask).
A KiCad screenshot: an Ouija-esque planchette shape, with hand-drawn stylized nasturtiums and "ESP-01" on the front, plus its programming circuit with Program & Reset buttons, a 6-pin FTDI header, and an 8-pin header for the ESP module.
