I have a degree in Electrical Engineering and they didn't teach us this in school, so yeah... theres that. Thanks for making this approachable to the DIY'ers out there.

Oh man. Rob, stop making such awesome videos that take me deeper down the home automation rabbit hole!

This video was amazing. No chit chat about useless stuff that makes the video way too long but didn't miss any important parts, showed process from prototyping with cables to end of design, and even included the ordering from a manufacter part. I'll look forward to watching more videos like this from you!

Sometimes I forget that I am a certified Engineer. Why did I ever bother going to college. I didn't learn any of this, so here I am. Humble beginnings. I just want to make a usb with a programmable screen that shows a QR when plugged in.

Gateway drug... no kidding man! Got into Raspi, 3D printing, Microcontrollers like ESPs for things like WS8212s and WLED projects, Home assistant and other Raspi servers...last December. Yea... not enough hours in the day LOL. Especially when my real job as a communications engineer gets in the way....lol. I'm having way to much fun tinkering and being a maker. So much to learn which really is the best part. I'll strat a project, see a video or article on something new and get all excited all over again. But, I am finishing projects! Just shipped a Dinosaur Night Light to my Son for the newborn Grandson's room. D1 Mini running WLED (Amazing app) for WS8212 LEDs. Very happy with how it came out and friends and family have been heaping praise in me. Gotta say...it's pretty rewarding making things after 20 years of doing integrations for voice and data acquisition and analysis. Having PCB made is the next step to make projects look legit. So, , thanks for the help!

Man, I have never not been blown away with how informative and concise your videos are! Please don't ever leave... 😆

The clearest easyEDA and PCBWay video I've seen so far - thanks so much!

A few tip for novices to soldering. Always skip pins whenever possible. For example, if you’re soldering 10 pins in a row, do them in this order… 1, 5, 2, 6, 3, 7….
This prevents excessive heat build up in one area which can damage components and burn up traces.
P.A.C.E. has some great videos on YouTube. They are very old videos, but the laws of physics don’t change so it’s all still relevant!

A similar video for 3D printing project enclosures would be amazing

I found this channel by searching and subscribed halfway through the first video. This is really, really good content and I expect to see this channel really blow up. I was a little nervous about making a PCB before watching this. After watching this, I feel zero hesitation. that’s pretty incredible for just a few minute long video. It’s still complicated but it’s no longer mysterious.

When I made my first crude PCB, I had to draw the circuits on a copper-plated board and then dip it in etchant. Man, things have come a long way since then! Thank you for this tutorial!

[ChrisMyers]

THANK YOU!! I've had many schematics that i've wanted to create pcbs for but I thought "this is just another thing that I'm going to need to dedicate hours and hours to try and I just created my first board and ordered it in under 2 hours, next time will be much faster. Thanks for showing how easy it really is.

The curved traces are there for timing. They keep parallel paths equal distance to differential pairs, keeping impedances equal, therefore eliminating noise in the signals. In general, we should leave them in.

[shenqiangshou]

Thank you. Finally, after all these years, after watching your video, I got started and designed my first PCB last night. It's now awaiting processing! Can't wait to see if the board comes out ok.

[WTFMacca]

Making a PCB has been in my bucket list for a while, This video makes it look super easy thanks!

[Raress]

Hopefully you are going to do more PCB tutorials, really enjoyed this one.

[ree-she]

Learned more in this video than in all my years of college. Thank you!

[bradc]

This is great, and why you’re one of the leaders in this space!

[ygreq]

As always, the best on the whole internet!! Plain and simple.

[pyfferoenc]

Great job! Bonus points for covering ground planes! For complex projects could also include test pads, but not necessary for simple projects.
