Hi all,

i am searching on the forum for J2 PCB sets from group buys.
seems that nothing left anywhere!

anyone up for a new Group buy??

If you could make do with boards that are neither long nor skinny, you could find the Gerbers for the EUVL version in the J2 thread and have your own boards made for almost free.

tubesguy,
thanks for the idea,
the gerber file on the J2 thread seems draft ! or ???
if not enough for a group buy , then i could go for that !

That’s a nice looking board. Who did you use for the PCB fab?

I used "jlcpcb.com" for these and am quite happy with the results. Also the cost - $23 for 5 boards.

Thanks are due to the generosity of those who do the board design and post the Gerbers for us.
