Along the lines of "Will it Blend" this one is "Will it Work?"
I'm Putting together an odd ball project for this years Christmass
boat parade. We lovingly call it the spinning wheel of death..
Basicly, something like this, just bigger:
http://hackedgadgets.com/2006/06/13/top-5-spinning-led-displays/
So, to stream line things a little, I put together this Lego block
style display unit which will be driven via Mirco Pic. Here's a link
to the ExpressPCB schematic and board layout

What I'm hoping is, someone would find it entertaining to lambast me
on my crap skills, and show me the error of my ways before I commit to
getting a few dozen of these put together. (never built a SMD based
project, never had a PCB boad made for a project, etc., etc. lame
excuse, lame excuse.)
Thanks

"Anything that can happen, will happen" -Stephen Pollock from:
"Particle Physics for Non-Physicists: A Tour of the Microcosmos"
" Press on: nothing in the world can take the place of perseverance.
Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.
Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts.
Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. "
