Blog week 1

This week I focused on getting the electronics system for my light box working. After milling the PCB I realized that it didn’t have pins to reprogram it. I originally tried to Jerry-rig a solution with headers, but I eventually decided to just remake the PCB.

the next thing I did was solder on each of the components to the board.

after being told that I shouldn’t use jumper wires I realized that I needed to crimp my own wires. that was what I spent the next day on.

Thankfully when I plugged in each component and flipped the switch, the neo-pixel lit up.
