==Working with KiCad and Inkscape== | |||
After my first attempts to create something nice looking in KiCad using Inkscape I was able to actually build a couple of little project to get along with the program and train to use it. | |||
Here you can see a circuit which includes a blinking LED. The first try was a round shaped PCB. Later I updated it, chose smaller components, put them on a rectangle plate and added some script. The function is still the same. | |||
This is a little pendant in the shape of a star. I added a plated through-hole to turn it into a keychain. | |||
To get in the Christmas mood I created two more batches. The first one is a gingerbread man which can be used as a pin (the dot on his back marks where the pin shall be added later) and the other one a Christmas ball (also with a keychain to hang it on the tree). | |||
