Sorry, I took a break for a few years and didn't see this post.
At first glance, your grid does look functionally like my leaning pyramid.
It's weird, your design looks more confusing to me. :D

Yup, you can pre-buy parts from suppliers by JLCPCB.
Pre-order the required components in advance to ensure sufficient components are ready anytime.
Place a PCBA order with confidence at any...
I was checking prices on JLCPCB for a MCP23017 circuit, and I noticed something when I entered their part numbers.
Did you know you can buy parts from other customers when JLCPCB doesn't have...
Thanks, I'll keep that one in mind if I ever try to simulate a circuit again. :D
I had tried using that PWM board (FR120N, LR7843, D4184), but it the COB LED wouldn't completely turn off and I...
Yeah ... too good to be true. :(
Problems quickly arise when you want to test using parts off amazon or aliexpress. They rarely have manufacturer names, so getting matching spice models is a...
I gotta say, I was able to get a simulation running with just a few clicks.

Just a clarification, KiCad uses ngspice.
Turns out KiCad has a few "features" that you quickly pick up on when you read about spice:
- as mentionned previously, you're expected to import...
Nope, not yet.
I spent a few minutes last night trying to get SPICE working in KiCad and ended up on google. It turns out they have some generic devices, but you're meant to download the SPICE...
I just discovered this online tool.

I just completed the first lesson as I was watching the video and I'm really impressed. So far it seems to be free.

That's always an option, but it's a slower mechanism.
And I still have the issue of having sufficient torque to activate the switch. The motor has a stroke length, but no mention of force.

I need to override the switch position in software. MSFS will disable one of those leftmost yellow switches under a certain circumstance.
My first idea was to use momentary switches, and have an...
I've never used those types of switches before. Do you have a link?
I need a latching pushbutton switch to simulate these controls. They have to remain down when pressed ON, and pop out when...
One of the suppliers that had quoted me for that switch with the red shaft has a model with 100gf to operate. The model I am testing now uses 330gf.
It would be easier to use that switch cause I...
So I have a need to override a pushbutton (from ON to OFF) and came up with this concept; a solenoid piggyback on a pushbutton switch with a 3D printed cap held by a strand of wire.

JLCPCB: created my ZIP on April 10th, received today on April 16th via DHL courrier.
I'm not going to break any records with this shipment.
:wink:
It is cool that we can now track container ships in real time.

Note: JLCPCB wraps PCBs so they can withstand an airdrop with no parachute when they have components mounted.
Latest JLCPCB order to Canada:
- 14 PCBs, no components mounted
- ZIP files were...
At first I went "Aaaaah crap".
Then I went "YAY! I can use the other side for my tests".
And then I found out the support pins are staggered and not reversible, "Aaaaah crap".
:D
Just got my first order of 14 circuits, these look good:

Creality support eventually replied. They linked me to a video on how to debug the printer, but I'm supposed to video myself doing that. I'm not set up with an area to open a printer and film, I...
Yup. I googled "jlcpcb steals design" to see if there's a history of incidents, and fell on this thread right away:
...
Exactly. It's really fast to print an empty shell, but don't sneeze on it. :D
The hard part is finding that right balance. I don't have stress testing equipment, so I have to use my better...
Yup. You can chose from many infill patterns at varying degrees of fill.
I start at the lightest just to test fitment, then move up until it's as strong as I want.
Now this is a lot more reasonable than the Ender.

5 hours 35 minutes for what was gonna take nearly 2 days. This is the normal profile in Cura (from Anycubic...
The Ender is relegated to small jobs, if I fix it.
Just got an Anycubic Kobra 2 Max, 420x420x500 and goes at ludicrous speed of 500.
This was out the box with no tweaking, must have been around...
