June 14th: design the draft.
So I just can't believe I finished all design in one day, kind of.
I was so impressed by everyone in the call this morning that I decided to give hackpad a go.
So, I followed the tutorial and changed it a little bit. Overall, that was an quick design.
This is my second time designing a PCB, kinda getting used to it.
and also the do the case, but I think it's a failure, probably I'll have to design it again.
Total time spent: 8h
June 15th: Fix some design parts.
Today I drew a new design of the case.
I calculated the height so the screw will fit.
Total time spent: 5h
June 16th: Realign the model parts.
I think the alignment have a little bit, I mean a big trouble, so I went back to Kicad and remeasured the lengths and calculate again the measurements.
To my surprise, almost none of the alignment are actually aligned, so I just fix them all, hopefully with some sweat...
Total time spent: 2h
June 18th: final fix and get approved.
I add the PCB to the cad and submit it for approval.
Total time spent: 2h
June 20th: Place order.
I send the PCB into production. Well, got stuck with the coupon problem for a while
