Speaking Of PCBs...

I mentioned making my own PCB — which means printed circuit board (which is the little board that holds all the resistors and gizmos you've seen in those electronic gadgets you've broken) — so I thought I'd post a pic of my layout.



If all goes as planned, this will be the PCB I'll use on the boost I'm making.

For those that don't know and are interested (you know you are), the circle areas are contact points between the various components, and the solid lines are the traces that connect them all together the way in which they are to be connected. After transferring this to the blank PCB, I'll drill little holes in all those circles so that I can insert the components and various wires.

Here's the actual size:
