Dude! I totally forgot I even had one of these until now! I populated the board, like, the day I got it, drilled the enclosure a month or so later, then I got busy buying a house, packing, moving, unpacking (not even close to being done with that) and then christmas stuff...I need to wire that shit up and finish this project already! I really hope it works...kind of scared that it won't though...any chance these boards will be available again? If it turns out well, I really might want to mke one or two more to mess around with. If it doesn't turn out well, I'm really gonna want to try again...

Finally getting around to building once my drilled enclosure comes in the mail. That'll teach me to attempt the drilling myself without proper measurements OR anything to hold the box in place.
Why are these kits not available anymore?

So no more boards?

Funny how you can do nothing but everything all at once.
