Wouldn't a prototyping breadboard be a better tool for this?
Still congrats man on the progress.

@HitWRight yeah you're right, I want it to be sort of permanent though, and also I'm just not a fan of breadboards except for testing really small things

Why not a make a PCB? Would be a lot easier, cheapper, and faster.

@LuxARTS I probably will do once I'm sure this all works
But you're right, it's a pain soldering in all these wires

I'm working on a similar concept, I use breadboards. Once I'm COMEPLTY done with a module, I'm having them made on pcb (jlcpcb) because it's cheap lol

@tman540 Yeah I'm currently designing the PCBs for it all too :) I used stripboard instead of breadboards just because I find it easier
Good luck with your project!
