Progress has been slow. Trying to modify about 100 boards for Supercon in case there’s demand. There’s no time to fully assemble many, so I’ll make up an assembly instruction guide at Supercon. Some final acrylic testing remains, then I can start making stands. Total engrave and cut time is about 6-8 hours.

I thought I got my USB connections backwards but thankfully I didn’t. I should have a working UF2 bootloader to make firmware updates easy. This will likely be what I am working on and testing on the first day of Supercon unless some time frees up. Worst case, there is a ROM vendor bootloader.

I’ve shown the design to a few people. They like it and want one, which is promising.
