I really want to build one of these but I'm not sure about the ATmega32u4, I'm not sure if I have the skill to hand-solder a QFP chip.

  Are you sure? yes | no

Luke, I have a few extra PCBs with all the SMD pre-soldered, and also the aluminum plates. PM me if you're interested.

  Are you sure? yes | no

Eugene wrote 10/24/2020 at 09:57 • point

I'm interested if you still have them. If not, would you care sharing the Bill of Materials?

  Are you sure? yes | no

Yeah, what Eugene said! :-)

  Are you sure? yes | no
