This video is part of my “KiCad Like a Pro, 4th edition” course, updated for KiCad 8! In this session, we’ll revisit step two of the PCB layout workflow to refine the outline of your PCB. I’ll show you how to create a polished board outline with rounded edges, ensuring that your design is both aesthetically pleasing and optimized for manufacturing.
We’ll cover how to use tools like arcs and lines to achieve smooth corners and minimize material usage. This refinement is crucial for both the functionality and appearance of your final PCB, especially when working with enclosures or other physical constraints.
