I have to say I thought I ended up biting off more than I could chew in the beginning and during stages without ever touching a soldering iron.
All of the resources needed are here so this made it super helpful for me especially bookmarking, subscribing all to relevant topics during the build process. If it happened to me it probably happened to someone else which I found was mostly true.

Feeling super proud to have finished this and I was definitely was challenged around every corner.
I received some great feedback in our Hardware Help section after I ran into a silly roadblock towards the final stretch.

This entire community made my experience very pleasant and I had to share this with some of my social media due to this.

My little girl thinks I'm some magical wizard now and she can't stop playing on it.
She really wants to build her own but I'm thinking maybe in a few years as she's only 8.
My friends are messaging me to make them one but I'm trying to spin it and have them take this on themselves because the experience of putting one of these together is just amazingly awesome. Maybe when mintyPi version 2 is out it will be easier for me

Sending a big thanks to the main dudes @Wermy @Helder & everyone else that has been enhancing and contributing to this project!
I understand why some of you don't have time to play video games now, lol I have all the parts and it's time to begin my Spearmint mintyPi!

Nice job, it's always great to have that feeling of accomplishment. It makes you want to do more and the next version will ease the install some and some other goodies are also coming from Wermy too to make it easier too.
