Welcome to all new supporters!!

I'm amazed how many of you joined. Got a few times the critic that I don't show all supporters. It seems it's well received now to show all. Still have to rework the rewards here but I don't want pay walls anymore.

About the video
Yes, I finally did it! I took a sponsorship from JLCPCB. I took my time (months) to be sure I can recommend them and I'm quite happy with their stuff as well as the service.
The money I get helps a lot. I just ordered a re-flow oven, yay!
Tindie has to pay for the Pick'n'place, but that's a bit in the future.

Updates
I already have 3 trash videos uploaded in the pipeline but didn't want to flood you with that at once. My current main project is an LED sub counter for the nerdy 65536 subs.
I have also received 5 new board designs that you might get a glimpse on in the video above. Spoiler alert: two of the designs don't work properly. One of these were the VGA design for the TinyPico. New versions have been already ordered. Three more designs need to be tested this weekend. Still quite happy how everything is turning out right now!

Ordering PCBs from China

A summary of my experience from ordering PCBs in China. I tested for a few months with different designs and shipping methods to be sure I can recommend it. It's definitively more convenient and economical than etching at home. Tell me in the comments what specific parts of the design process you would like to see in a future video.
