    I'll see what I can do. Ben's .stl files are frequently stored in a cloud so we don't always remember to export them and put them in the directory to be uploaded to github. Thanks for pointing out they…

    I'll see what I can do. If Ben still has them in the cloud we can probably upload them to GitHub.

    Can we get the files up loaded for the case?  Nothing in the file but the front panel.

     

    thanks

    Hey!

     

    Schematics for the hardware were in episode 226.

    Damn, bought the components to follow along with the build but can't do much without the schematics. I know they aren't cool, tv-friendly and all that... but I watch the show to learn and then you need them.

     

    Otherwise, great show!
