It would be nice if we could add the 3D components for IC1 and the ext power header, so this really is the completed product.

I'd like to propose replacing this Pcb screenshot and the Schematic screenshot from KiCAD with a github.io page that hosts the HTML BoM. Admittedly, that's more on me since that isn't a simple PR kind of change, but I think it would be much more helpful (and look much nicer). Thoughts?

If you agree, let's go ahead and remove these for now and focus on getting a copy of the html BoM committed. Then I can set up the github.io page using it as a source.

Personally, I would vote for leaving images, but that is prefrence. Happy to go either way. Let me know what if any images, and I will edit the PR. I will addi the HTML BOM and a note about how to find it in the README.
