I’m continuing to play with the max7219 module. I decided that I’m only going to link two of them together for this first project, as that’s a nice size. 😂📺This weekend I’ll build the case and initially play with the DHT111 sensor I have to make a temperature and humidity guage.  I’m thinking of eventually buying smoked plexiglass for projects, as that would look nice both on front of display and in back but I got to look at the cost.
