Как я переехал с Altium Designer на KiCAD

Я расскажу о своем переходе с мощного и широко распространенного Altium Designer на open source-инструмент KiCad. Причин перехода с Altium Designer три. Во-первых, хочется использовать официальное ПО, проекты из которого я смогу спокойно выкладывать в открытый доступ. Во-вторых, я теперь не изготавливаю печатные платы и могу пользоваться любой интересной мне программой. Наконец, я просто хотел попробовать что-то новое, открытое и независимое.

dump computer lives! not sure if i have a real use for this long term but for now i'll use it to fiddle with getting #fusion360 or #ptccreo working under #wine.

I made replacement grip elements for Ergon GP1/GP1 Evo bike handles, reusing the original aluminum clamps.

They are relatively expensive products and I was always bothered by them becoming sticky after a while.

My TPU replacements are neither expensive nor sticky. But I haven't used them over a longer period yet, so I will see if they hold out exposure to sweat, rain, and UV longer than the originals.
