Big ponoko order arrived

Good lord! Best of luck with this mate!

Wow! That is a big effort! :thumbsup:

Yeah, BIG being the key word here ;)Cant wait for the final assembly pics

Also, I´m interested in how you do your 16x16+X BLM? Got that on my open list... Are there already PCBs available for it?

Zomg, that thing could control a mothership armada! May the gods of soldering and assembly smile upon you

Thanks all for your support! It is a bit intimidating - not sure where to begin now :frantics: Still waiting for some screws to arrive.

Hawkeye, I have designed a BLM PCB. I haven't had the big one manufactured yet, but I've got the small one (seen on bottom right of panel). This will be my test to see if it is working properly.

I intend to share all my design files once the project is 'complete enough' and I've found any errors, but anyone who wants a look at a specific part before then is welcome. Just send a PM.

Wow. Can't wait to see that thing finished.

If you're interested, you can Show Off Your Project at the Ponoko forums.

(It's also one place where the Ponoko bloggers get pics and info for Maker Stories on the blog.)

Super awesome!
