I'm organising an initial manufacturing run of a batch of 25 PCB assemblies now. Going through some normal back-and-forth with the assembly house over some of the details.

Nice.  Just let me know when you are ready.

Soon. Did I say that last time though  :scared:

In other news, I have the first batch of 25 PCBs here (at long last) and the first couple have tested fine!!


I've also spent what felt like an eternity soldering together a mountain of probe tips. Each signal tip is in three parts. There's a pin to go into the probe, a series resistor, and then a sharp tip, all cut down and then soldered together. This is then carefully glued for rigidity, and finally tidied up with some semi-rigid heatshrink. 10 minutes assembly per tip. 50 tips. I've managed to burn through every decent podcast I know of. Fortunately the ground tip sockets are a bit simpler to assemble.
