electrotrains Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Hi All, Last year (before I started developing the Ultimate Cart) I decided to have a go at assembling some homemade cartridges using the Pixels Past circuit boards: http://www.grandideastudio.com/pixels-past/ It took me a while to get the Gerber files provided in a suitable state to upload to OSH Park - there was a missing board outline file, and the drills file needed editing. In case anybody else ever fancies trying to get some of these boards produced from OSH Park, I've attached the known working zip file of the Gerbers that I used when I got my boards made.

redman Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Robin, How's everything going in Scotland? I might move there if Donald Trump gets elected. Thanks for the Gerber files, I ordered 3 boards from OSH Park. I love cartridge projects. Redman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 While I share your feelings about Trunp (although Scotland would not be my first choice), please refrain from further politics comments. Thanks. ..Al 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to hear this was of interest. I love cartridge projects too! I was revisiting this project since I'm writing a DIY Hardware article on cartridges for issue #4 of Excel magazine.

I am asking because I am trying make a minor changes on the board wiring. It is useless to import Gerbers to Eagle where import never complete correctly.
