Now that we have a working scrolling message on our Pi Zero, we need to look a little more at the hardware and how we will use this as a badge we can wear on our clothes. The first thing you will probably be thinking is that the two bare circuit boards of the Pi Zero, and the Scroll pHAT HD with all their cables between them do not make the best badge you have ever seen! But fear not, as this section of the project will get everything looking far neater and ready to go as a badge.
