DropLit Assembly Guide
0 – Introduction and Acknowledgments
I’d like to welcome you to the DropLit assembly guide!
Please read this entire guide before you begin assembly of your new DropLit! It will help you
avoid any unpleasant surprises and will ensure that you’ve got everything you need BEFORE you need
it! Understand that the photographs in this assembly guide do NOT tell the whole story of each step!
Make sure you read and understand the accompanying text for each step!
A quick note on the Arduino Uno and the gShield. These two devices work in combination to
control the DropLit and are very static sensitive, so please don't take them out of the bags they ship in
until you're ready to install them.
Many thanks to Michael Hackney – he trailblazed the first beta DropLit build and my job would
have been a LOT more difficult without his stellar efforts.
