I've got some reasonable hardware on stripboard, and I'm working on the firmware. With a bit of luck, I can chuck a few extra features at it.

Surely SMD would be easier for the DIYer than through-hole?  I can only do through-hole stuff at work because I don't have the tools to deal with it in my workshop at home.  I guess I should really get a bigger nozzle for my welding torch.
