I are happy now.

Solving a lighting problem by inventing a whole electric board printing technique is frankly jaw-dropping. Kind of explains the enormous gap between episodes.

Nice cameo from SuperfastMatt in there too.

This is a normal post they could just send the layout to 100 companies
and have the board made cheap as chips. Astonishingly dim of them. And no, this was not compelling content. Primitive Technology if all he did was carry water and cut down trees with unsuitable tools

Well if all you know is hammers and angle grinders I guess you end up going down some odd paths to solve it. You don't know what you don't know.

This is a normal post I'm a fan of the channel and I have to agree, it was a pointless exercise
They seem to know about breadboards and routing software, so it is a small step to having the design laid out by software as well. Using solder as the tracks is daft too, the tracks peel off too easily and would melt if a component failed thermally. And not to be too much of a dick about it, but the first trip out they do the vibration will make most of it fall apart.

They obviously knew enough to assemble a solder printing rig, which seems to me a lot harder than designing a circuit board. I was just left thinking "why?" rather than thinking it was cool. Wasting effort reinventing the wheel rather than doing something else useful.

I guess it was an amusing excursion for them, but to me it seemed like an opportunity to ask for some help from a electronics designer.

This is a normal post I wonder how many Binky subscribers have passed away?

Put it together and drive it.

This is a normal post I have serious concerns about this plan
In terms of prototyping a PCB layout and bench-testing it, it makes some sense. It can’t be the easiest method to achieve that but that’s the Binky way.

Actually putting this into the car, and expecting it to survive in a vibrating and moving environment, is asking for one or more of those tracks to pop off the backboard and short-circuit something expensive.

I hope they’re making plenty of spares.
