Blinky board made through Hack Club's Stasis! I made it because I saw it on #stasis-sisters and I wanted to make a shiny bird-shaped thing. I learned how to create a PCB from start to finish with this project.
It's shaped like a duck!
I followed this tutorial.

Questions
How big is the Blinky board PCB?
It measures 94.4 × 86.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Blinky board use?
19 parts, built around the NE555P. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Blinky board KiCad files?
From the juhapark21/blinky-board repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is blinkyboard.kicad_pcb and its schematic blinkyboard.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Blinky board design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask juhapark21 before reusing the design.
