      Neat. I don't really have any questions about the process, but rather am just curious about what brought you to visit a PCBA factory in the first place, was it for work? p.s. If you liked this...

      p.s. If you liked this video, you might also enjoy his previous one on the making of the actual PCB too:

          Ah, cool. That seems like it would be a pretty awesome way to travel and experience unique places like Shenzhen. I wonder if Scotty from Strange Parts has ever considered doing something similar....

          Although I have to say, after reading the entirety of that blog post (and all the comments), even as vehemently anti-VC as I am, I still don't quite understand why they would shut the Hacker Camp down entirely just because a few VC execs joined it that last year. The way they handled everything also seemed like a massive overreaction and incredibly immature, too. :/ It's a real shame it ended like that. :(
