A Friday amuse-bouche — designed a circuit board with the form factor of a postage stamp. Just shipped it!pic.twitter.com/DWTgI5xjRO

Looks nearly like Penrose tiles but isn’t?

Penrose tiles don't repeat, do they? This is inspired more by middle eastern tile geometry

Yeah, I guess the pentaness fooled me.

Enjoying the holidays: my sister is a printmaker and has a running theme in her work of getting people to notice the sky

When I asked what she would put on a postage stamp, she sent me this image:pic.twitter.com/Mgy5H6HMOs

I thought I'd try my hand at making a postage stamp-sized circuit board and shipped one, but this design is way more complex
-
Anyway, I just wrapped my latest design in EAGLE pushing envelopes for what these tools were designed for again:pic.twitter.com/pdxjIHdAgS

Lessons learned: many, including that printmaking/engraving has an even stronger stomach for tiny complexity than circuit designers.
-
any process older than 100 yrs is gonna be robust as hell in ways PCB software aren’t, right?
-
maybe - but also to carve this, at 1-1 scale, by hand? That level of pain and detail is pretty unique..pic.twitter.com/QPMXObkpFk
