Hello All,
This is my first post on the forum. I have been reading from afar up until now, but I thought some might be interested in this project I have been working on, on-and-off for the last few months:
https://github.com/jgw4/doppel-1
It's is a complete native KiCad rebuild of the Apple-1 PCB. I imported one of the replica gerber file sets floating around here, and slowly Theseus ship'd my way to a complete native set of KiCad features. In fact, every footprint on the board is custom to match how the Apple-1 actually looked. Waste of time? Probably. Was it a fun and satisfying learning experience for me? Absolutely. The best parts of this is you can highlight all the boards nets through the software to help you with troubleshooting, and it's also linked to a full schematic of the board, so clicking on a footprint will send you straight to the symbol. And you can even export your own gerber files! More info about the project is availible in the Readme on github.
Anyways, peace out and have fun
Jagwy
