GacroPad Devlog 5

It looks so beautiful, don’ it?

Wow. I cannot believe it. We actually have a PCB. Grueling, working hours (some unrecorded…) and we finally have a PCB.

It’s late where I’m at. I don’t have much to say, and I have school tomorrow, so I’m cutting it short.

We are almost done.

CAD is going to be really tricky. Like, really. I use Autodesk Fusion. Voluntarily. I cannot use FreeCAD, in good faith. It does not work on Debian (at least, for me).

I have to use the web version. Thank god I am a student.

The moment this is done, I will work on a separate project in a new YSWS. It will be Wheatley, from the Portal franchise. Articulated. It should be able to move around by itself on my ceiling. This is a shower thought.

As for now, we need to be serious. Crap just got real. When I work on CAD tomorrow, I will be recording guaranteed. It’s also not going to be green. I decided it’s going to be black (it’s not going to be expensive, green does reek of old too but Raspberry Pi uses it but idgaf). When I get my JLCPCB, soldering iron (I don’t own one sadly), and other item grants, it will go to the best stuff I can find.

My teacher also asked me to bring in some PCBs into compsci class so I am going to get absolutely bullied for this.

Bye!
