How many complex boards have you designed yourself that were perfect on the first try?

It’s Ryan, so probably all of them.

Thats not the point, they didnt just design a board they made a whole workflow for making their own PCBS and they still had to design the board on top of that. In the time it took them to figure out how to build the PCBs they could have designed and ordered several cheap iterations of the actual boards.

You're right. I'd have much rather watched a video of Richard doing EagleCAD or KiCAD tutorials.

hey i watch lot of stupid stuff thats entertaining, i didnt say it wasnt entertaining

Still going!



Nearly 2 years to build that dash...

Make sure to stick around for the post credits scene

The fact they went that crazy, with gauges, blows my mind

On the one hand I'm glad they did it. It's some wild attention to detail.

On the other hand, I wish they'd address the fact that it failed on its first time out of the garage. It's been 10 years (holy shit) and we've never seen it do more than roll around a grassy parking lot.

Yeah I feel like you can get really nice custom aftermarket gauges, instead of making your own

I love how it’s like most builds. We will be done in X time….oh, no we will not.

Still got the BOM mug you gave me Jeff.

Also still got the Onsie but I think I will sell that as it's too large for me and I never wear it.
