Fidget toys are fun but lack electronics. Let see if we can make an electronics-based fidget cube. What would you like to see on one of the sides?

Join the discussion where Katie discusses her original concepts.

    There is a link to github at the top. It contains the gerber/drill files for the 3 boards.

    I have no clue about this. Are these files for a 3D printer?

    There are files for sending to your PCB manufacture of choice, and files for 3D printing the case/framework contained in the project.
    However part 2 (episode 548) has improved 3D printed case files than this version.
    Files for 3Dprinting are the STL extention files
    The files in the zip files under New-files_for_manufacture are the files for PCBs
