Soldering Class: L1 Demo Board
Details
This is a paid class that requires preregistration on Universe! You can pre-register at https://www.universe.com/events/soldering-group-build-l1-demo-board-tickets-V3479Z
Please make sure you select the correct ticket type - the cheaper ticket DOES NOT come with a kit to solder and is only for folks who already have one!
We'll have a followup class in May for those who already have a board and want to learn more about programming it.
=============================
Let's solder together! We'll be building the LayerOne Demo Board, a small board that is a great learning resource for programming, electronics, art and music! If you have interest in C programming, assembly programming, graphics programming, or embedded systems programming, this is board is for you! You can also just build it for fun and we'll flash an example demo on it for you.
For the record, we consider this an INTERMEDIATE soldering board. There are a few small / challenging to solder components.
There are different options for tickets depending on if you have a kit already or not. We'll have a programming and demo class in May as a follow up for those of you who already have a functional board!

Where do I park? / How do I get inside?
Parking: There is free street parking on N Ontario St. It is usually easy to find a spot after business hours or on weekends.
Getting inside: Once you park, head down the walkway, we are the long building in the back (see link for overhead directions)
