...an unpleasant experience.

For PICOZX motherboard for ZX Spectrum original case

I checked on two monitors, and it didn't work. I sent it back and it was a bit of a hassle to get my money back, but I finally received it. Unfortunately, the contact with the seller was not very pleasant, he does not use the language of a gentleman. But in the end, after an unpleasant experience, I received a refund and we will not see each other again.

Response from Bobricius | Sept. 11, 2024
Haha, scammer, that amused me. I think if I were a fraudster, I'd surely find an easier way to make money than spending hours soldering some circuit board and then dealing with dozens of emails for an month from someone who can't seem to connect a monitor properly.
So, to clarify for those not involved:

- I returned the money within a minute of the gentleman's request, even before I received the shipment back.

- I wanted to refund the shipping cost for the returned package as well, but since Tindie can't refund more than the customer paid, I asked for a PayPal address where I could send the shipping amount, but the gentleman didn't bother to respond.

- Subsequently, I received the package back and tested it on multiple monitors. It worked flawlessly on all of them, and I even sent the gentleman a photo, to which he also didn't respond.

- So I really don't understand why this guy is crying over 6.49 euros, which I'm more than willing to refund - I just need his PayPal address, but the gentleman has decided not to communicate.

WOW!

For PICOmputer - RP2040 Raspbbery PICO - QWERTY devkit

The picomuter is completely not what i expected. Its way nicer than expected i appreciate the craftsmanship thank you. Now only if i can find some sort of case for these 2 devices my network would be very close to complete.. Definitely recommend both of these products

Nice kit

For mini PiQWERTY USB wired mechanical thumb keyboard

I've made 3 of these now. They are a nice kit and handy little keyboard.

The documentation is a little confusing because there are links here to different websites with different versions of the keyboard with different software files.

Here are my additions to the documentation that I learned.

Though the PCB has several pads for other components you really only need the raspberry pico and the 37 tactile switches to let it work as a keyboard. It has space for the power switch but isnt needed either since it is on by default when plugged into the USB cable.

For the firmware the file I used was called "Armapad36v4-pico2023.ino.rpipico.uf2" linked above under "datasheet." To install, I plugged the new pico into my PC while holding down the "bootsel" button on the pico. This makes windows recognize the pico and open up a file explorer window to the pico. I then copied the above .uf2 file to that folder. The pico automatically installs it and reboots (all within 1 second) and is then ready to go as the keyboard. For those others like me who are new to this, you dont need Arduino IDE or circuitpython to get this kit running. Just drag and drop that .uf2 file!

I used M2x10mm screws and ~4mm nylon spacers to hold the top and bottom PCB's together.

the keyboard is automatically recognized and works with my windows PC and a couple raspberry pi projects.

The only issues I had were the pico not liking some of my USB cables. But that's of course not a problem with this kit. But if something does not seem to be working, try a different cable.

Very cute retro-futuristic mini game computer.

For PYCOBOY - Small universal console & computer

Very cute retro-futuristic mini game computer. Really nicely laid out an assembled. PCB used as structural elements. A great pleasure to play with.

what a nice diy zx spectrum is this

For PICOZX - Handheld ZX Spectrum 128k + other 8bits

The quality of the pcb's are exceptional quality, the solder mask on the pcb helps a lot to locate which part needs to go.
i really enjoy the build! About the documentation, i give it a 3 star, since the url points to hackerspace website without any documentation.

overall im really happy with it!
