This time, one with the footprints for a few Nvidia GPUs!

Cryptocurrency has taught me to love math and at the same time be baffled by it.

Cryptocurrency lesson 0: Altcoins and Bitcoin are not the same thing.

I'd love to have a thin steel ruler with built in stencils for small component foot prints instead of all these PCB rulers.

I guess the elephant in the room is that do you reball your ruler, or just chuck it in the bin and get a new one?

PCB Rulers are important for so many things outside of circuit boards

Honestly, if I had one, I would probably end up using it as the coolest dang straight edge in my maths classes.

Need one with the SMD cutouts, instead of footprints, so we can use it for an SMD stencil for solder paste on one off's, like DIP-2-SMD breakouts.
Where can we buy yours?
