Retro hobbyist, simulation/strategy gamer, and as some say an unusual person. I've been know to stream simulation/strategy games, computer aided design (horrible hobby level), or some of my electronics repair; mostly my retro hardware.

Currently recovering from a motor vehicle accident so streaming is random.

Ordered parts for two more PicoGUS which arrived today! Figured as I had three blank PCBs might as well make a couple more with one going to a friend for their retro DOS 6.22 build.

Time to cut v1.5. The sides are now cut from the empty space inside of the holding "squares" to reduce waste.

Needed some more 3.5 in floppy holders and decided a new design was needed. This holds 10x 3.5 in floppies.

After solving 3 super tiny solder bridges I have joined the #PicoGUS club with 2x cards!

PS: Ignore the outdated firmware version as I was testing the in place firmware upgrades.

Great project @polpo!
