I've made something similar before, but this time I'm getting a custom inner and outer shield made thanks @aisler.net (NNNI26 for €10 off till the end of this year, plus coupon works across multiple orders!)

At the Kinder-FH at FH Dortmund on 17 April 2026, children aged ten to twelve built their own blinking mascot on AISLER boards. Prof. Dr. Simone Arnold explained that an electric eel is packed with tiny cells that work like batteries in a circuit. Then it already was off to the bench. #STEM #PCB

For many of the kids it was their first time soldering, so the PCB was designed with easy to read silkscreen - no one had to ask "where does this go??" thirty times. 😁 We sponsored the boards. Running a soldering workship or school project and could use a few?

A timer chip and LEDs, a coin cell for power and the dots on Aali's back started to blink. A 3D-printed housing turned it into a keepsake.

Southampton's Formula Student team built their own race car dashboard. It runs at a "buttery" smooth 60 Hz, thanks to external SDRAM & a length-matched 6-layer layout.🧡 Full write-up in our community: community.aisler.net/t/sufst-cust... #FormulaStudent #PCBDesign

this unusual experiment from @aisler.net is yet another PCB capacitor - the outer layers form the driven plate which shields the inner plate formed by the inner layers from interference! (NNNI26 for €10 off similar sketchy experiments!)

@aisler.net actually managed these super thin guard traces! I used KiCAD's solder mask expansion to create them! (NNNI26 for €10 off this year on all Aisler orders!)

Last week, the European Solar Challenge took place, the only 24h solar race in the world! ☀️ Among the participating teams were some of the teams we’ve sponsored. Are you in a student team and looking for a PCB sponsorship? Don’t hesitate to reach out to us! 🧡 #technology #hardware

first project is a dielectric tester designed by a friend! the idea here is to sandwich a dielectric between the exposed copper plates with a fixed distance between them, and measure using an LCR meter at various frequencies! thanks @aisler.net

Maker Days Eindhoven is next weekend, 12 & 13 Sept, 11:00 to 18:00 at the Klokgebouw on Strijp-S. Hundreds of projects and the people who built them, like an eight-metre robot made of recycled parts and an arena where self-built machines take each other apart. 😼 #MakerDays website: en.makerdays.nl/

The FreieMaker and JuniorIOT stands will have Beautiful Boards on the table, in action. 😻 Just as we did it for other events: If you need a ticket, let me know via a pm. 🧡 Already got an idea for your next electronic project? MDE26 gets you €10 off until 14 Oct at aisler.net/en

No 'Trust me, I'm a Maker' sticker yet? Ours went undercover in a very well-known sticker box. Clue's in the picture. :3

Have you started your next project yet? Try using the coupon code MFH26 to save €10 on one order before 10 September 2026. #MFH26 #MakerFaireHannover #MakerFaire

Anyone here, who'd like to visit the Maker Faire Hannover this weekend and doesn't have a ticket yet? Please drop me a pm 🧡

It's International Cat Day, on a Saturday. Cat tax below. 😻 Cats are responsible for a lot of hardware. Automatic feeders, flaps that open for one registered chip. Litter trays on a load cell, LED ear headbands, ... What have you built for a cat that made it to a manufactured board?

New PCB from @aisler.net. Had to flatten the stencil first (thanks DHL premium), but it soldered fine in the end. Now to test if everything works using it with the 360x360 qspi display.

In Part 3 of our KiCad series with #ThatKiCadGuy you learn how to put your KiCad library under Git & share it with your team. init → commit → push. 😎 ▶ youtu.be/5MHF84NF_lI We're looking forward to your feedback on the series! 🧡 #KiCad #Git #OpenHardware

Half of all PCB Design-pain starts in the library. 🥲 New 3-part series with Petr Dvořák (#ThatKiCadGuy). Part 1: global vs. project-specific libraries + drawing a custom symbol (a 3-phase bridge rectifier) from a datasheet with the AISLER Lovely Library. ▶ youtu.be/fmwMzdV9XGk Free & CC-BY-SA:

RIP the €150 duty-free parcel. Now it's a flat €3 per tariff heading (not per parcel!). No pre-clearance? The carrier fronts it and catches you at the door. DHL's fee: €7.50 extra. 🙃 Good news: There's nothing to charge if it never leaves EU. 🇪🇺 Your AISLER orders are not affected. 🧡 #PCB #MadeInEu

taxation-customs.ec.europa.euGuidance and legal text on temporary flat fee on low-value imports which will apply until 1 July 2028From 1 July 2026, the EU will apply a temporary €3 customs duty per item on low-value consignments (up to €150) imported from outside the EU, abolishing the duty exemption applicable until 30 June 2026.

so not labelling the parts was a mistake, and making a test board as dense as the final product is always a mistake, so I added more test points! (boards from @aisler.net, NNNI26 for €10 off year-round, multiple times!)

Important notice regarding the current weather: Watch your operating temperature! Drink plenty of water and don't exceed your absolute maximum ratings. 🥵

Who else has sent their referral code to the group chat three times this week? 😅 No shame, we've all been there. And it's actually a decent deal: your mate gets €10 off their first PCB order, you get €10 store credit once it ships. Do it as many times as you want, nobody's stopping you.

This is the Raspberry Pi CM4S carrier that I designed during the KiCad Live Stream sessions. I made a few mistakes. The biggest I've identified so far is that the HDMI is too close to both sideways USB Type-C ports. That's a big issue because you can't plug the standard HDMI cable into it.

always remember to order a stencil with your PCBs! I tried smearing paste on the board here, but the results were blobby 🤰 (if you get your PCBs from @aisler.net, use NNNI26 for €10 off year-round! 😳)
