PCB manufacturing, I don't need steenking PCB manufacturing!

Image of a hand-carved and soldered circuit board.

The board is a 40mm×30mm piece of double-sided copper-clad fibreglass material.  A number of "tracks" have been formed by hand-carving the top surface into segments with a sharp knife.

Onto this, a number of components have been soldered: two resistors, a MOSFET, some 0603 diodes, a 0603 resistor, and some connectors: two 2-pin KK, a 3-pin KK (actually, the remnants of a 9-pin that got "cut" to size), and a grubby DE9 female, all edge-mounted because I didn't have the right-size drill bit.

Today I learned that there is a macOS version of Winlink that's in beta testing! https://winlink.org/macwinlink

The interface is completely different, and somehow still just as unintuitive as the Windows version of Winlink 😂
