My ESP8266 to control our front door illumination. The PCB was made with a CNC mill, with single-sided FR2 material.

The laser-cut enclosure came out quite nice, if I say so myself 😅

The module on the left is a 24-to-3.3v buck converter.

What is this? 🙂

Is that Discord censoring?

Hahahaha I know what happened. I used an app to strip the GPS info from the photo before posting here. I think it recognised that as a face, and decided to pixelize it (it's a privacy-centric app)

I mean, it is a naked IC.

I suspect it's actually a button like the one at the top.

Yeah it is. I guess the horizontal orientation is a bit naughty?

that's nice! from personal experience, sandpaper is very effective at removing the burrs from the traces! It took me a while to finda proper tool that would mill copper nicely and isn't too wide

Today I made another PCB, and used two different sandpapers, first 240 and then 600. Seems to do a lot better job at actually removing the burrs (instead of just flattening them) than just the 600 I used for the PCB above.
