You can get buy some really cheap LCD and touchscreen modules from places like eBay. They're actually great devices that let you add a display to your Arduino and microcontroller projects for under £10. But they don't come with any documentation so they can be a bit tricky to get working if you've never used them before.

In this video I'll walk you through the connections and software needed to get them working. My screen is a generic, red, Chinese sourced device using the very common combination of an ILI9341 based LCD module with a touchscreen driven by the XPT2046 touch controller.

You can easily get hold of one of these touchscreens at Amazon or eBay.

Make sure you visit the project pages on my website for circuit diagrams and breadboard layouts, along with more information and details.
