i have no clue if this will actually work out, but it should be a good way to get an input from button, visualized with 1 led (blue), with output visualized by another (green)

so the most annoying thing putting this into an educational + aesthetic pcb form is that to make the schematics pretty you mirror the mosfet symbols, but you can't do that with real ones unless you find ones with different pinout (oh and added issue, the most common pinout has gate, source on one side and drain on the other, mismatch with the common directions the pins point in symbol-wise)

ok so @goat@hellsite.site said this would be an Ambient Noise album cover, any other genre ideas?

doesn't this look great? sucks castellated holes are so damn expensive tbh (like, €33.12 surcharge for castellation, €13.76 surcharge for ENIG gold plating) and then add component cost, and panelizing will be difficult too because of the castellation...

example of a panel that was done like this (but by hand, which sucks)

and like.. it's *really* easy to use, surprised myself with that because normally adding mousebites and precisely connecting edgecut segments is a paaain

more realistic demonstration, it takes a single round pcb design like img1, and according to lots of options (x, y, padding, radius) turns it into a panel as seen in img2
