:*Redesigned [[Media:DDF-PCB-v0.2-20110415.png|the PCB]] as described above and ordered a prototype from [http://www.spiritcircuits.com/services/go-naked Spirit Circuits] again. This board should be more solder-friendly due to thinner traces (smaller thermal area) and copper hints about what goes where. As another new feature, this board has mounting holes set at the corners of a 2.5" square. The board itself is 3.35" by 2.83". With luck, I should be able to fit 12 of these on a 1sqft panel via [http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/spirit-electronics Spirit Circuits' eBay store], so each PCB would cost in the region of £2. | :*Redesigned [[Media:DDF-PCB-v0.2-20110415.png|the PCB]] as described above and ordered a prototype from [http://www.spiritcircuits.com/services/go-naked Spirit Circuits] again.

:*Soldered the rest of the LEDs, with some help from Sam (another one) and [[User:elliot_w|elliot_w]]. | |||

:*'''IT WORKS!''' ... more or less. Some of the LED channels aren't working, but that seems to be just down to dodgy wiring. | |||
