Sensor Watch @crowdsupply backer update is live! In which we announce that the first 500 boards are headed your way, show off the PCBs — looking fashionable in bright red soldermask — and mention the shout out that Sensor Watch and @MakeAugusta got in last night's @adafruit live show! Plus a demo of the gorgeously animated Wyoscan watch face, and 2 BONUS watch faces, shipping with every Sensor Watch Lite board, hidden behind a new gesture.

After several failed attempts using a complicated technique, I successfully sewed a simple pattern to make a SMD resistor phone case. I forget to fully include the seam allowance in the size computation, so it just barely fits my phone. It makes a nice set along with my PTH resistor glasses case!
