I always forget which GPIO pin is which, and what leg of an LED is ground, so I made a laser-cut mounting board for the Raspberry Pi that tells me which GPIO pin is which, and what leg of an LED is ground!

Replying to @FozzTexx
Made some progress. Put the 6502A in a II and determined it’s dead. II happened to have another 2mhz 6502A so put it in Apple III and now it resets and I get beeping that changes if I push keys.
Got an old netbook? Maybe a #chromebook you don’t like, or that surplus to requirements? We need spare #laptops, etc to help us teach parents/carers and children about tech, can you help our #RaspberryPi Jam ? Please direct message me and retweet for reach :)

Does anyone have any step by step worksheets for students to use breadboards, jumper cables, buzzers, buttons, LEDs etc with Raspberry Pis please? Have all the right equipment but short on experience. Would be great to do this to bring programming with Python to life. Thanks
