Extruded Controller Shield PCB Design

This weekend I ordered my first set of professionally manufactures circuit boards from Osh Park. I designed the board in Fritzing, so I will upload the layout shortly. It's based on the old RepRap extruded controller, but instead of using an integrated ATmega328, it will use an Arduino Uno R3. The board supports 2 thermocouples, 2 thermistors, and 3 PW.M outputs for controlling heaters.

Here are a couple previews of the board. It is expected to be complete by the end of the month. I should be able to start assembly in early December.



Here's the current Fritzing file for the board:
