Great work on this! This looks like a really complex usb hub, approved! For future note - I'd recommend adding more detail to your journal entries describing how and what you did during that time since that makes it a bit clearer and easier to justify the hours you spent working on it!

Wow, your case looks so cool but if you are hand soldering then you don't need to buy the PCBA as seen in your cart screenshot this is all you need to fix so keep up the hard work!
