Arduino package for Eagle, I know ya’ll are going to like this… now you can make shields and custom projects with ease (site and on github).

incredibly useful! thnx for posting
Awesome job on the arduino file for Eagle. If you have any intention of selling a arduino shield, you’ll need to purchase a licence for Eagle. Kind of a bummer.
A free alternative is KiCAD. It has some great 3D rendering and is not too tough to use.

I don’t like the idea of doing this as an Eagle part. On almost every shield I’ve designed, I’ve needed to change outlines a bit, modify the headers and labels, etc. Instead, I made a “shield scaffold” a while back that’s just an actual eagle .sch and .brd file you can copy and rename, then use to start your shield project: http://www.macetech.com/blog/node/69
thank you very much!
