A project log for Vending Machine for Birds

Simple, inexpensive bird feeder that dispenses peanuts in exchange for dropping stuff in a hole. A vending machine for clever birds.

I've migrated the electronics from 5 solderless breadboards to 3 stripboards to mitigate the poor connections and mass of wires. After a little testing and tuning I'll be putting them in the new enclosure. Here is a pic of the main board with and without labels (there are also 2 more for the deposit and dispense sensors).


I also found several more mistakes in my schematic and stripboard cut/bridge template. Seems like I can build it but my documentation is a little sloppy - really trying to improve this.

After testinig I'll upload the updated/corrected schematic and stripboard layout.
