Setbacks:

Fever! This week I got sick, there seemed to have been a virus going around the people in my circles. I was knocked down this week with fever, and could not spend much time on the week's assignment. Despite still feeling ill today, I managed to go to the Fab Lab and solder the board (I cut it last Friday while getting sick) in about 90 minutes time. It worked right away, I did not have to re-solder anything. I even had time to make a simple circuitboard protection on the Shopbot!

Further Development

I am very glad everything went as smoothly as it did, given the circumstances this week. I learned a lot, finally I started getting some feeling for electronics. I am confident that in the weeks that are to come I will learn all I have to start creating my own circuits. In the 3D printing week I will make a new container for this board, because the one I made on the shopbot did not turn out very well.
