00:00 Intro.
04:00 Manual V-score.
10:30 Manual Mouse Bites.
11:57 How to use KiKit.
21:30 Outro.

In this video, we look at KiCad V6 and how to create panels.
We look at how to do it manually and how to use a Plugin called KiKit.

Looking at V-scores and mouse bits. Looking at doing it the long way and the short way with a plugin :)

Please note:

I am aware that I said I will show how to do many boards on one panel but will make a different video for that as the video would be way too long. and I will definitely look at improving the sound, with the new baby, had to move the recording a bit around and the new space is a bit noisy and not ideal. But working on it :)
