Subject: Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Anyone willing to do a screencast video-tutorial

Hi,

Someone's already been kind and done that..

If you do a search for EAGLE library on Youtube you'll get a couple of hits,
this one for example:

I'd imagine the same to be true if you search for KiCAD.

In another current threads, I saw a number of people say that they make
their own parts/components including the PCB footprint.

Wondering if anyone of you would be kind enough to make a screencast
video-tutorial, showing / teaching how exactly you do it, i.e. how you
translate the footprint from data-sheet into a new component for your
personal library.
Instead of Eagle, if someone chooses to do it in KiCad, that might be well
enough as well, since having used both a little (still a n00b level usage),
I see quite a few similarities, so I am hoping that with a little more
efforct, I could do the conversion on my own.

thanks,
bd
