After more than about 10 days, the newly re-deisigned (and I hope, the final version) of the Razor Crest’s main board has arrived. The circuit is the same except that it has been re-wired slightly to fit into the new screw terminals. To make or rather, allow for last-minute re-soldering, I have moved the components. […]
