Hi Everyone,

At last I found my camera so I can finally post some pictures, nothing truly awe inspiring, but they mark my progress... Albeit slowly, there's one photo in there that's totally unrelated to this thread but I thought Martin might like it to show off his amazing miniature handy work, sorry that they are a bit blurry but this camera doesn't have stabilisation, once I've posted I'll try to get them in some sort of order and provide some comments to explain them.
Thanks for having a look.

Hi Everyone,

I soldered everything together yesterday and in a burst of enthusiasm assembled it only to find that something isn't quite right, I suspect a dry joint somewhere...

lesson one (the one I keep forgetting to do - ok that I bypass😊) TEST IN STAGES

lesson two ..... refer to lesson one 😊

So everything is disassembled - again, and I'll check all my joints. If in doubt redo the joints.

I had a closer look at the pinheaders on the Nano this morning and it looks like there could be a few dry joints, so my first step will be to get the soldering iron out again and just work through them one by one.
I'll take a small break from this just to recharge my batteries, and then have another go.

All part of the learning curve 😊

Bill
