Just built the 2.0.4 kit and thought I mention a couple issues I ran into:
1. At step 2: 10uF oscon capacitor is written as going into C6 - however on the picture it's shown as soldered into C5. I assumed the text was the correct way and soldered the oscon into C6, while I added a 10uF cap in C5.
2. In the Hat Hacker package there were no nylon spacers or washers, only 6x 10mm metal ones and the screws. It went together ok, albeit it's not the most sturdy thing. Including more spacers in the kit would be nice. Also for the piStomp board, there is space to add holes so it can be propped up by a second set of spacers, ensuring that the whole board doesn't just float in the middle.
3. Not sure how, but I totally went the wrong way at step 12 and soldered the header onto the board (for top mount) which is not what I intended to do. In hindsight I should've noticed the callout - I'm such a visual person, text like that often times eludes me. Would be good to have pictures of the two mounting options.
I ended up desoldering the header and instead of permanently attaching the LCD to the board I opted to strip the plastic spacers from the connectors making it possible to mount the screen lower. I then used a shorter female header I had that mounted straight into the board, as opposed the one included that had plastic spacers at the bottom. For stability I then 3D printed a bracket that filled the space out underneath the screen, so it sits flush against the board about 7mm or so. I'm still waiting on the enclosure, so I hope it will fit just fine.
I'm excited to have it all come together because I really want to dig into the UI and attempt a redesign (I'm a designer, so it's what I do
