★★ PCB Repetition: Revised Design ★★

dated September 26, 2011 (Monday) – not a Tech day actually--

 Meanwhile with our PCB repetition, (to be honest, I thought) there seemed no time, so I chose to do it at home. I then smoothened the edges of the PCB using sandpaper, erased the unwanted dirt on the solder side, and when I was about to trace the design, my brother, who just got home from Manila to visit our great-granny’s wake, intervened. He told me I wasn’t doing it right so I asked him how to do it the right way. He took the diagram and the PCB and he just started drawing. I protested but he continued drawing. He revised the design and he also suggested that the groups (of 2) should have had different designs from each of the other groups. I insisted it’d be better if we had a standard design. But he went on drawing anyway so I had no choice but to watch. When he finished drawing, I thought the revised design was a mess considering what he did was a little more compressed. Later I realized it was actually better ‘coz there were no curves – that means cutting would be easy because the design is all on linear. So it wasn’t too bad after all. The only problem was, would it be ok with our Prof to have the design revised?
