This weekend I was able to finish soldering one of the control chip boards, land half the display to the main control board, and test one side. I am back up and running with 1/2 the display like I was for the end of 160A. Except this time the leds are long enough and I am off a breadboard.
Very good progress. Now I need to finish the other circuit board and land the other half the leds. Probably one more day of hardware. Then I need to link the two chips together so they can be addressed as chip 1 and 2 from the same arduino sketch.

Just noticed the pictures dont include the board with all the leds landed. For now just take my word for it that they are, and the display runs. Pictures tomorrow.
