More SMD goodness (hopefully!) *Even more boards added*

Little update, I was getting ready to populate the boards for Unicorn Slaying and noticed that the build doc I used says that the min voltage for the caps is 35V. I always thought it ran at 12V for some reason, so my 16V tantalum caps are no good. The problem with the higher voltage tantalums is that the footprint of them is bigger and won't fit the pads on the board, but I've managed to find some 25V ones that are in the same package size so I'll get them ordered. There isn't any point in populating the boards until they turn up, so this one is now in the ever growing list of on-hold projects.

On the plus side, I've got the enclosures for Snitch and Unicorn Slayed drilled and painted, just need to design some labels for them now, but due to work it's going to probably be next weekend when I get time to do them.

Thanks! Yep, both powder coated. The red one is one that I got from eBay, and the black one is one that I created myself with the orange flakes. I'm in the process of making all my powders sparkle, just to make them a bit different.
