PCB fixture for applying solderpaste

I have done a few PCBs using the reflow  process. To apply the solder-paste using a stencil one requires some sort of fixture to hold the PCB.

So far I helped myself with other PCB Material which I glued on the table to get to the same height. This is okay when only one PCB needs to be made. However, when doing multiple PCBs on after another, the position needs to be constant for every board.

So I designed a simple spring loaded fixture to hold the PCB in place. Its made out of 1.5mm acrylic.

Lasercut MyLittlePony CollectibleCardGame Action-Tokens

Recently I bought a 2-Player Starterdeck for the “My Litte Pony” CCG. One of the aspects of the game is managing you ActionsPoints.

The StarterBox did include some counters/tokens made from thin cartboard, but those are not easy to use. I also tried using dice to keep track of the actionpoints, but thats also not optimal.

Thats why I decided to create some tokens:

The material I used is Perspex (color-codes 2TL2 and 4TL1) in 3mm thickness.

 

The Design is based on My Little Pony Printable Cutie Marks which can be found on Thingiverse. I did some small modifications. The butterfly had some parts which were to small to lasercut; I enlarged those.
