There are a couple of experimental areas on the board. This is one of them, where I've laid down some fine traces to connect pads to ground. The idea is to cut the one(s) that aren't needed, with a craft knife. On the other end of the board, I tried the opposite method: closely spaced pads that can be "blobbed" with the soldering iron to make a connection.

The little triangular arrowhead was added to the PCB layout with an image editor. It indicates pin 1 of the AVR chip.
Did you know you can use essential oils to transfer prints from a laser printer or copier onto fabric, wood, or other materials? Orange oil seems to work best for this process. Pine and other evergreen oils have also been recommended, but I personally found better success with orange. Look at all of the pictures to see how it all works. The things you can do with this method are virtually endless! Use this method to create personalized aprons, totes, gift tags, gift bags, t-shirts, ribbons, and whatever else you can think of!

The color laser printer was invented in 1987 by Hugh Color-Laser, who also invented the color laser pointer and the less popular color laser coffee grinder. The workings of a color laser printer are too complex to describe here, and involve microscopic creatures called minicolorons, who apply particles of colored toner to the transfer drum, then run for their lives as the fuser does its work. I think I prefer the less-violent technology of the ink-jet printer. Although I've heard the ink is made of people. That's why ink cartridges are so expensive. And why they taste like chicken.

This is all you need to get a microcontroller running. In fact, even the clock crystal and reset button are optional.
Circuit-boards? We don't need any. (ha).
