Laughing Squid Circuit Board

Our friends at Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories presented me with an awesome surprise gift this year at Maker Faire, a prototype of a Laughing Squid logo turned into a printed circuit board. As far as I know, this is the first time that anyone has taken our circuit board inspired logo and made a actual printed circuit board out of it.

EMSL are thinking about producing these with a black background to match the logo and it’s possible they will be for sale in the future, as a drink coaster, etc.

UPDATE: Here’s the EMSL’s write-up on the Laughing Squid PCB. They say if there is enough interest, they will make more and sell them in the Laughing Squid store.

Awesome.

Now, to make it *do* something. Convenient that there are 8 arms as the tiniest of AVR controllers has 8 pins…

Hmmm…

That is great looking. I wish I had not missed Maker Faire this year.

If I can’t get one of these at the Austin Maker Faire, I will hold my breath until I turn blue.

yes….that IS the circuit board I have been looking for! Must use that to help program our 8-tentacled, cocktail-mixing robot! …it is our only hope.

Amazing circuit!

Gorgeous! Can’t wait to see the projects that come out of that.

Drill out the pads. Add some optic fibers, an LED or two and a battery, maybe some more silicon, and you have an illuminated, possibly blinking logo pin/kit.

WANT!
