If you ever need to learn how to do something, like say fix a motorcycle, you can go to your local library and take out a book. Sure you could buy the book but the library is nice because as a resource you can get the book whenever you need it, keeping your house uncluttered. text/html 2010-03-11T19:25:32-04:00 ladyada http://ladyada.net/wiki/partselector/powerconn?rev=1268353532&do=diff WANT MORE??

Almost everyone pretty much picks the same part for a purpose. With lots of practice, you can easily figure out what the 'most common' part is but it's always good to get some help along the way! text/html 2010-03-11T15:54:50-04:00 ladyada http://ladyada.net/wiki/eaglelibrary?rev=1268340890&do=diff What be in the Adafruit Eagle library hells yes its my very own mixtape of package footprints. Dont forget you can also grab parts out of any adafruit project's .brd file by running extract-pkg.ulp (or whatever its called). However, since its nice to be tidy, I'll be merging everything into ONE FILE called the Ye Olde Adafruit Eagle Librarie, available at github
