KiCad tutorial?

Post by stephenl »

Do any of you know of good tutorials/video's on how to get started with KiCAD?

Maybe this has been discussed here previously - if so a thread link would be greatly appreciated.

I've never really done any kind of PCB design but would like to learn, at least enough to make some relatively simple boards for tube amp parts.
I've played with it somewhat but would like to actually learn how to do it right :D

I just started watching this series, I'm on video #3. Video #1 is an intro and can be skipped. I think it's what I was looking for - "KiCAD for Dummies"

the youtube 'link' thing only needs the part at the very end after the = sign, because there are like 10 different varations of youtube links, so making that 'work' is a bit of a PITA :D
EDIT: I fixed your link for you :)
