Shocking!



The control software is done, save for testing with the actual hardware. Now, the hardware schematic, the plan from which I'll actually wire the hardware together, is also done. I've got to feed it to a circuit board layout tool, then I'm going to teach myself to etch PCBs -- the usually-green base material of a circuit board -- to make the thing and solder it together. Click the little picture on the right to see the full-size schematic (especially if you can read schematics and want to tell me, "Hey, stupid, that won't work because..."). Yes, I realize it's ugly; I'm teaching myself many new skills lately, like "using schematic CAD software."
