NeoJoints are "joints" for NeoPixel/WS2812 LED strip to make it easier to join pieces together.
Published as a set of Eagle files, with angles of 0, 90, and 180 degrees.
Part of Mill-a-Week, @carlynorama & @todbot's weekly experiments with OtherMill.

Just a placeholder to remind people that all files are on the github.
I uploaded two new 180º NeoJoint designs. One has a 20mm spacing (so LEDs are spaced out) and a 10mm one (where the strips are touching). Below is the 10mm pitch one.
Those are great! I like the strain-relief additions. Making a matrix with LED strip is exactly why I started on these. (and around the same time too perhaps!)
Yes, definitely! The current designs are optimized for a single-sided bare copper board made on a PCB mill, but I'm making a few small improvements and then will do an OSHpark run soon.
I'm trying to just open these files in Eagle and every file gives me an error that they are not Eagle files - what am I doing wrong???
