Put your circuits on your plastic bricks of choice

Boards designed to be compatible with LEGO and other plastic building blocks.

There are KiCAD footprints for a variety of different brick arrangements in the parts folder. I've also included a number of personal projects using these footprints in the boards/ folder.
