PCB for ESP project 88

[supernet]

Have anybody built PCB for Rod Eliot project88 - preamp. I need gerber or pdf format circuit layout, because boards from ESP are expensive - high post cost from Australia to my country.


Thanks,

Expensive...I don't think so.
Don't forget the quality of the boards.

besides, you can make it by yourself. It's easy.
Give a try and if you can't, then buy them to Rod.

Where are you from?

He is from Europe, read it below his name. He didnt said that the pcbs are expensive, he said that boards are expensive because postage is expensive..

 

[audioPT]

I know that!

But I think the postage worth the quality of the PCB's.

About Europe, I also know that. And the Country?

 

[skaara]

Postage doesnt wary so much on to which country on given continent the mail is sent..

I am from Slovenia. 5 project88 + 5 project 05 boards+ post cost = 107 Euro!!! For 10 small circuit boards this expensive.

Ok!


My definition of 'expensive' is different.
Those 107€ are less than 1/10 of my salary.
Now I understand why they are expensive.

Why not cut your costs in half and use your own supply boards? You won't get exactly the same thing as Rod's boards, but with a little research you can build a nice supply and still have Rod's layout for the more critical part.

Or maybe you could buy a single P05 and use that as your template. Hint: the customer site version usually has a few "upgrades" over the public stuff.

I don't really see where the high post cost is coming in...the advertised price is US$12/board, so if you can get 10 boards shipped for Euro $107 that sounds like a deal to me.
