So I create a custom component for an SD socket. Got the board all designed. Got it all transferred using toner method (after several tries). Finally everything looked beautiful. Everything seemed like all was going to work.
Got the board all etched. Probably the best results to date. I go to place the SD socket and find I placed it backward!!!!!
What I did not realize is that since it is surface mount I needed to design the component as it is mounted from the circuit side of a single sided PCB.
I doubt this board can be salvaged. It is already going to be hard enough soldering it as surface mount let alone trying to drill small holes and running wires through the holes.
I guess it could have been worse, It is just a small daughter board.
