Just ordered my PIC =]

It's going to be a looong time before I can do this, but I figured might as well get the parts now =]

Just ordered my TPMS kit.

Got a skin all made up.

Just need to get ahold of the USB interface board and I'm all set...

UPDATE:

Well I've etched the PCB, drilled holes and started to populate the board when I realized, I didn't mirror the image before I printed it!!!!! ARHHHHHGGG!!! Crap, oh well have to start again!

yes it work but he must put all elements on other side (on cooper side)...

But they are all through hole components are they? So why not just spray it with some rubber, drill the holes and solder that way... Although making a new one would probably be easier.

Because home made thru-hole PCB;s dont have plated-through holes =P

Thru-hole componets don't need a stinking whole....I have make a few boards using thur-whole pieces and the only holes in my boards are to mount it to something...
