I’m working on the most unhinged board I’ve ever made. The squiggles are functional traces that pass DRC. Major shout-outs to @LaserMistress for giving me the itch to pick this project back up, @chipperdoodles for showing us all what’s possible with hand-drawn traces, and @ArchiteuthisFlux for diving into polygons and net connections with me, and of course, for always egging on my 10-year-old sense of humor. #kicad #pcbdesign #futerus

    And the biggest shout-out: It is absolutely WILD that this is possible with @kicad@fosstodon.org and I hope everyone who works on it knows that their hard work has culminated in crazy shit like this. The fact that I just dropped a group of those spaghetti polygons over the design and they auto-connected and assigned nets based on the pads they were touching was 👩‍🍳💋. The fact that the DRC even runs on this is nothing short of a miracle. #kicad #pcbdesign #futerus

    @alpenglow@mstdn.social What a lovely design. Tagging @vagina_museum@masto.ai - maybe they like it as well, something for their museum store... @LaserMistress@mstdn.social @chipperdoodles@chaos.social @ArchiteuthisFlux@leds.social
