This was the first project I've completed with professionally made boards. I used JLCPCB, since they were cheap.

This was also the first time I used a EDA tool. I use Eagle since there were a lot of tutorials available.

I made some mistakes related to spacing of the traces. I used one spacing for all the signal, and I think the HV traces are still to close.

The code is messy, but it works well for what it is. I did have to make one change to the board to bring 5v out to the connector for the rotary encoder, but that was a simple bodge wire to add.
