The first step is done: The Core_LPC17 board is ready and seems to work fine :thumbsup: Thanks. One remaining question about your case design: Is it necessary to cut the LXpresso module?

Thanks all the hints. What a helpful community :rolleyes: Just a few remaining questions about Ponoko/Formulor cases: How thick should be the material for the case? (I use the Reichelt components from the standard order list) Are the engraved text labels automatically white? If so, it's ok for me. Are screws included in the order? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your hint. A matte Formulor case could be a alternative for me. But I didn't found any template files with holes for the LEDs. All the templates I found in the forum were created for translucent material.

Yes, using version 5.2.6 (for Mac OS X) was successful. Yesterday, I created a first front panel draft with all holes and text labels using the Schaeffler software. But: After viewing the cost calculation window I canceled my plan :sad:: Nearly 90 Euro for one panel. Even when we start a bulk buy, the expected prices are way to much. Hmm, what to do? Does anybody know how much are acryl glas cases like from Ponoko? Is it possible to create non-translucent Ponoko cases? How stable they are?

Hi, I'm new here ;-) For more than a year I own the components and boards for the V4L. Last Saturday, I finally started the project. The first step was to burn the bootloader. I had a lot of problems with the current version of the IDE. After a search in the forum, the solution was found: an older version of the IDE. Now, I will continue with the soldering. Also, I just am thinking about a suitable case. Because I don't like acryl glas cases, I plan to buy a desktop housing (ABS with aluminium front panel). Then I will replace the alu panel with a customized Schaeffer front panel. Question: Are there already files available which I can import into the Schaeffer Front Panel Designer as base for my own creation? Thanks in advance, Tom
