Budgie SE Rev A prototype

Underside hook ups turned out pretty neat! I did a miscalculation on the bobbin width of one of the rear OPTs (it bumped up against the rear of the chassis), but I'll fix it for the production run. I may rotate it 180 degrees and place them almost touching so that you can easily connect Fast-On connectors. If not, I'll put 1/2" pieces of heatshrink tube on the exposed connectors. I *hate* to be shocked by B+, and those open frame outputs look like a perfect way to do it.
All the nickel plated screws will be replaced by black alloy screws in a few days when my order from FMW Fasteners shows up. They're my new favorite nuts-n-bolts place. Sorry, Fastenal!
