Using transfer paper and then etching process I was able to create this circuit board. Needs to be drilled out and then all electronics can be soldered on!

Strip board Module 02
This is the second strip board module that I have built. It changes the orientation of the arduino and sensor and places them vertically while facing the potentiometers outward, creating a ‘T’ layout. Hopefully leading to a tidier and more compact housing. Again the power source is external to the circuit and not included as size and the appropriate battery holder were still being sought after (now found!).
Strip board Module 01
This is my first attempt at a single pcb module. All elements except for the battery have been soldered to the strip board. This allowed for two things, shrinking and tidying the module while teaching me about circuit layouts and considering layout to suit size.
Sensors wired in
A few more bread boards and a bit of soldering (yikes) and i’ll have a first stage working prototype – provided the code works!!
