gEDA-user: the joy and sadness of new boards

[DJ Delorie <dj@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just got a box of panels from Advanced Circuits.  Five panels, ten
boards per panel (two each powermeter, usb-gpio pod, and three pod
modules - ten sets of boards total).  Joy!

Unfortunately, I have no way of separating them into individual boards
yet.  Sadness!

But I do have a 60 degree v-scoring bit for my router table.  Joy!

Last time I used it, the pcbs were too flexible for the big hole the
table had around the bit.  Sadness!

I was thinking of taking an old 7" table saw blade and re-grinding it
to a 60 degree point.  I can make a zero-clearance insert for it, to
ensure correct cuts.  Joy!

However, I don't have any of the parts for the boards yet.  Sadness!

But now I get to go through the BOMs, figure out the best parts to
use, put together a digikey order, come up with some hobby money, and
wait for it all to arrive.  Joy!  No, wait... sadness?  Crap.
