How a Logic Frame gets built
One person, about five hours, and a lot of wire. Every wire on the board was cut and bent by hand.
The steps
Place the parts
Chips, resistors, buttons and LEDs go on the boards the way a real breadboard build is laid out.
Wire it by hand
Every wire is cut and bent to length, with attention to color, spacing and keeping the runs straight.
Check it
I look over every chip and wire for seating and tension, then give the frame a final once-over.
Pack and ship
Cleaned, wrapped in foam with corner protectors, boxed in a double-wall box, and sent with tracking.
The first one was art
Some of my own early posts called it a computer, which it isn't, and people called that out. They were right. The Display Edition borrows the look of a 4-bit computer without being one, and I say that on every page now so nobody buys it expecting it to run. So I designed a real one, the Working Edition, and the build starts after finals, around January.
Follow the Working Edition and kit build
I designed a real 4-bit computer that can hang on a wall, and the build starts after finals, around January. Follow along to see it get built and to see when the Working Edition and the build kit open.
Build updates go up on Instagram (@logic_frame_co), and that's where I'll announce when the Working Edition or the kit opens.
