I bought a Drone Lab v2.0 PCB from Casper Electronics and sourced my own parts from Mouser as well as a few visits to my own parts bins.  Over my Thanksgiving break from work, I assembled and tested the unit.  Since I’m a geek with access to an impressive collection of video and audio equipment, I decided to video the entire process and make a little time-lapse recording.  Casper from Casper Electronics liked it so much, he added it to their site.  In realtime, it is about 5 1/2 hours filmed over the course of two days.  The video is presented here warts and all:  marvel as I struggle to install the 1/4″ jacks, laugh when I drop parts on the floor, cry over the well-used PanaVise PCB holder vise I got on eBay for only $20!  Truly a cinematic tour de force.  I think you get the point…  I haven’t had time to do a complete assessment of the device yet, but so far it is an impressive piece of kit.  (No pun intended.)

BTW, not trying to shill for PanaVise, but their PCB holder vises are the bees knees.  If you do a lot of assembly, you should run out and get one right now.
