How to solder Arduino

Okie everyone,
I need some help for consideration concerning a project I've got.
How would I go about soldering Arduino RP2040 To a custom PCB in KICAD. Does anyone have a footprint or is there somewhere for me to look.

Even though you likely won't find a footprint specifically for the Nano RP2040 Connect, that board uses the same form factor as the other modern boards of the Nano family. So if you find a footprint for any of those boards, it will work for the Nano RP2040 Connect as well.

I found a couple after a quick search:
https://create.arduino.cc/projecthub/hulkco/kicad-footprint-for-new-nano-family-01b5d1

I don't know anything about them, so I can't vouch for their accuracy or usability, but it's at least a start. You might find some from other sources as well.

Ok. Do you use KiCad?

Well, it might be a bit of an exaggeration for me to say I "use" it, but yes I have used KiCad.

Be sure to print it out 1:1 and see if it matches your footprint. Look at a 28 Pin Dip footprint, it may work as a start.
