Similar projects worth following
Ever wanted to make your own micro-controller development board? How about a custom designed bench power supply? Those are the sort of projects we are taking on at Mrs. Penny's Driving School. Hosted by Brandon Dunson and sponsored by Hackaday and the Dallas Makerspace.

This is an ongoing series of workshops held on Saturdays with food and drink supplied by Hackaday.io and SupplyFrame.

Our learning goals as we work through each project:

1. Choosing components for a project.
2. Designing a circuit using one or more datasheets.
3. Use EAGLE EDA tool to capture a schematic.
4. Designing a custom PCB in EAGLE.
5. Sourcing components.
6. Ordering our custom PCBs from fab house.
7. Assembling our boards.
8. Testing and troubleshooting the end product.

This project is geared toward those individuals who have been interested in making their own hardware but for one reason or another haven't been able to make it happen. If this sounds like you we hope to see you at a workshop soon!

Hey Mr. Brandon, I "finished" the BLE uploader I was telling you about--I used your board as my test subject:
