Arduino GRANDE
Description
Instructions
Paint the graphics with acrylic craft paint and a squeegee for added contrast and pizzaz!
Use 1/8" banana plugs as the headers.
Use a doorbell button for reset.
Use panel mount LEDs for the SMD LEDs. (NOTE: add a 10K resistor to the power LED, the pin 13 one doesn't need it.)
Use a panel mount USB B female-to-male connector for data transmission.
Use 4-40 screws and nuts to assemble.
Wire a real Arduino to the headers, reset button, and LEDs.
Place rubber feet underneath.
The rounded power jack top is made from a painted cardboard half tube.
Hoist it on your shoulder like a boom box.
Now, you're ready to wire up all sorts of Arduino peripherals (LEDs, buttons, knobs, speakers, etc.) with 1/8" banana plugs and make your demos bigger than ever.
NOTE: I removed the Arduino and Atmel logos from the file, feel free to add your own.

How do I print that mustache?
I feel that a true Arduino GRANDE would not just have a regular Arduino wired to banana plug headers. It should operate at 12V levels throughout the board, and every pin should be able to drive a relay directly and sink/source 5A. Inputs should be 35V tolerant. A couple of pins should already have
electromechanical relays built in.
Nice. The only way this could possibly be better is if it were a boombox too. Oversized Adafruit WAV shield mod? :-D
This is freaking awesome, I just ordered my first Arduino on friday
&
amp; I should be getting it on thursday, I can't wait! But for this I'm going to make one
&
amp; hang it up on the wall as a decoration, if I was going to make it funtional like yours, I'd honestly have to make the shields to go along w/ it :-D keep up the good work man!

Cool stuff, But my first thought is why you didn't hide the real arduino in the usb port with a lid. then you have the usb in in the right place and a cleaner looking board :)
Neat idea, Condac. I did put the USB port in the right place, via a USB panel mount, but I didn't think to hide the real Arduino in there. Maybe next time!
