Thanks to PCBWay for the awesome PCBs and assembly work! In this video, a mishap is caused by confusing symbols and lack of sleep. Join me as we locate the mistake, fix it step-by-step, from desoldering to the satisfying moment the component finally snaps into place. Despite a few hiccups and some self-deprecating humor, we eventually achieve success. It works in the end! If you want to support my antics and help fund more projects, check out my Patreon and shop links.
