Experience comparing DIY and Turnkey PCB assembly with the Bald SENSE project. This journey started almost four years ago. Thanks to a collaboration with MacroFab, I am finally collecting valuable environmental data with my custom Feather Wing.
A big thank you to MacroFab for manufacturing the boards and sponsoring the video. I also want to thank Unexpected Maker for their noteworthy contribution to the FeatherS3 microcontroller boards, which played an essential role in the video.
This video covers:
– The detailed design process of the sensor Feather Wing.
– My DIY assembly struggles and the rework that followed.
– Turning to MacroFab’s TurnKey assembly services to get the job done right.
– What I discovered about my garden with the help of this project.
