My wacom is a USB version, but same as you discovered, using a tablet
didn't turn me from a scrawler into an artist, so it sits in the bottom
of a drawer somewhere.

Same experience as Andy.

But your project *really* makes me feel inadequate: decades ago I used
to do something like the equivalent of stuff like that. I remember
soldering a rotary switch to the jumpers of a PDP-8 board that cost more
than a year's salary. Carefully.

And Vero wire! That really takes me back. I had a contractor friend who
had a home-worker who could put 1500 wires on a prototype wire-wrap
board without a single mistake.
