• Riffing on davedarko's Schedule SAO

  Davedarko was way ahead of me. He has a perfect little board that breaks out the pins for an add-on module. 

  The modules I have been eyeballing have the pins swapped, so I stole his work and modified it including removing the nice calendar silkscreen and adding a header for swapping data and clock. I also move vcc to the end because more of those are available on the adafruit modules I have coming. I sent off an urgent order to OSHpark since I am in PDX and I think they can pull this off in time.

  I have no idea if there will be room for the headers on front or on back. May need to solder blob it.

  beats deadbug by a smidge I think...

• Sorta better

  Enamel wire helps, though half perf half bug is not a great look. 

• Woah, this is uglier than the postit

• Adafruit order

  ordered an assortment of adafruit i2c devices to play with.

  Dangling headers off a badge and connecting wires all over seems like a horrible idea. Proceeded anyway.

• Inspiration struck

  ordered headers, wire and some perfboard 

  Drew a terrible schematic 

  
  I sort of expect this to be either a duplicate of someone else’s work and I’m just making notes for myself, or I’m just lazier about this hack than anyone would have ever imagined.
