At first we decided to try out fiber laser machine to go through an entirely new process and design a double layer pcb to test it. I wanted to make a little Ankh earrings. Ankh or the key of life is an It is an Egyptian hieroglyphic symbol for "life" or "breath of life.

I got to Kicad and started my schematic and made sure I made sure my ERC is correct.

Then I went ahead and routed the traces using default trace width and used the Beizer Tool I free styled my way and was greatly inspired by waves and The Great Wave

We went ahead to a company where they had the fiber laser machine then tested the design rules pcb but this didn't work out as when we tried doing this the machine only made like a printing on the PCB that we could wipe off easily. We set the speed to 400 and power to 80 and tried different trials but none of them worked. I guess it could've worked if we repeated many times on the same spot but we didn't have the chance to do this.

Making some delicious pancakes as a self-soothing emotional-support way to get over not making my earrings? Yes thank u

The Components

• Step 1

  I started by preparing the components needed for this operation

  

  

• Step 2

  I measured the bowl I'll be using and zero-ed the scale then put 220g of the pancake powder which will need 300 milk since it was written on the back that the whole bag -440- grams will need 600ml of milk

  

  

• Step 3

  Add the milk and wisk wisk

  

• Step 4

  Add the butter, installing the head on the machine and I heat up the machine from the griddle's heater on the back. I decide to use a pre-made G-code from the online store on the creator of pancakebot. I choose this one of santa. I copied the file to the SD card then inserted it into the machine. then hit start
