Epic Hardware Hacking Weekend

It turned out to be quite an epic weekend of building boards and getting things up and running.  It’s good to be back in the groove with my own electronics projects – it’s been far too long that I’ve been away.

As a wrap-up to the weekend I thought I’d put together a bit of a review video for where the CNC electronics project stands.  You can see all of the boards I’ve worked on over the last couple months (and assembled entirely this weekend).
