Share your circuit projects! We want to know what you're creating with your Voltera V-One.

Here are a few circuits we've printed recently:

Very cool! What's the deal with all the grids - is that an ink-efficient power plane?

It's a hatched plane! We recommend converting ground planes to hatched planes to conserve ink. Works great!

These look so great! Can't wait to get my Batch 2 Voltera here in Europe

These do look great! I like the idea of the hatched-plane.

Will there be a place for users to share actual Gerber files, Eagle projects, etc., so we can actually share circuits?

Or should we each have our own repositories? (Maybe you don't want to be a "file-server" for everyone, which I can also understand.)

Hey Leland,

This is something that has come up in the past but we haven't had enough time to look into it.

I guess I'll leave the questions open over here...
1) what would we need from this place to share designs?
2) what would it look like? A subreddit? These forums? Github? A custom built part of our website?

Question 1 really dictates question 2 I think.

Hi Alroy,

I hadn't thought much about it. Something like Github would be really nice. But maybe you could just start with a forum that allows attachments.

Are there any existing sites that you (everyone) use to share circuits? If so, what are the features of those sites that you like? How could they be better?

If everyone uses different sites already, maybe we should just have a forum where people can post links to their projects?

What does everyone else think?
