I am a purist though. I like it black and good coffee freshly ground. But I do like where your head is at. Putting it in a thermos is a good idea. I have a really nice big one. Thanks!

Success! Turns out that my soldering was golden after all. There ended up being a corruption in the micro sd card. Bought a new one a zam! Ready to rock!

I cleaned up the soldering to the best of my ability. it seems like it should work. It may be the software. The image write failed a couple times until I ran the writing software as administrator. I had to delete the files from the SD card each time it failed. This may be the issue?

2024-05-12 16:06:41

That's what I was thinking. Be really easy for anyone to use their own 9v and cheap. I'll make the 3D file available for free once I finish it.

idk. hard to tell without the LCD hat. lost in shipping unfortunately. what do you think?
https://m.primal.net/IEoM.jpg

2024-05-09 02:23:30

- reply

I just "finished" it up. Looks dirty. We'll see if it works. My LCD hat is delayed or lost in the shipping process. There are a few pins that have a little of the brass ring showing. That may cause it to not work. Also in the process of getting it too hot the pins moved to become longer than the others on the front side. That may also cause it to not work.

2024-05-08 23:44:16

- reply

Some of the pins appear to have gotten too hot and moved backwards. They are now longer on the other side than the other ones. Not sure how this will effect the LCD hat…?

2024-05-08 23:28:34

- reply

Yeah totally. It's super hard to keep it steady too and I think it is getting too hot for this application. I will try your method.

2024-05-08 23:27:28

I've been so distracted by destroying my raspberry pi that I didn't even notice #bitcoin dumping. Now I've got to stack and put the soldering away for a minute.

Thanks. I hope I didn't destroy the board and pins. I'm going to give it some practice. I had way too much coffee today too. I was all shaking! Haha

2024-05-08 23:21:31

Thank you! I'll make a third attempt tonight. Problem I think is I got a soldering gun (weller) because it was all my hardware store had. The tip is not a point like the video above. I can't do the method he is demonstrating....

I don't know. Definitely suck hard at soldering. this video above makes it look very easy.

not only that but I had to desolder on each pin because it was just globbing up.

Ok, bear with me here because it's just a concept and I'll never actually build it. The key is that it is two computers in one. One operating fully connected to the internet, the other is not. The first being a streamlined phone capable of custodial #bitcoin purchases and sells running a bitcoin only software and application. The other being an air-gapped signing device that only signs transactions. It does so through two lasers that can transmit data but not be intercepted remotely in any way as they are close proximity and enclosed in the case. The lasers send the transactions and the person signs for it by manually entering their words or using the camera and a qr code. The seed words are not stored on the device similarly to seedsigner. Oh and the device has biometric scanning of course to unlock.
