Re: Its been a long trip... but it lives!

Nice job looks awesome! I just finished mine yesterday,... still some issues when trying to close the tin but ill figure that out, I had a similar experience with my gbz but when doing the minty pi I was kinda confident. You will see it on the next project you pick up :D. Nice build
