Questions

How big is the Solder PCB?

It measures 41 × 28.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Solder use?

5 parts. 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 Solder KiCad files?

From the Nullskulls/Solder repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Solder.kicad_pcb and its schematic Solder.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Solder design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
