Well, it is listed under "Ramblings". I don't think it was written as an article, it's just a blog post that could help out someone looking to do the similar.

- ZenoArrow 11y ago> "Well, it is listed under "Ramblings"" My issue was with the word 'made'. If I see a title for 'I made x' I expect a little more than 'I ordered x'. I'm not going to make an article about 'How I made an iPad' if I just ordered one from Amazon.
- unwind 11y agoHuh? Teaching oneself PCB layout software and actually, you know, doing the layout work is certainly "doing". It doesn't even say, but I assume (from the picture of the unpopulated board) that the OP also soldered the board, which is even more "doing".
- ZenoArrow 11y agoTrue, was probably mostly a case of misunderstanding. I was hoping to see an article about making PCBs as in making them at home. If the term used was 'assembling a cheap PCB' I'd probably not have overreacted.
- jpindar 11y agoI work in electronics manufacturing and if I said "we made a new board for this project", I would mean we laid it out and sent it out to be fabricated.
