Re: My Gameboy Zero Build with Custom PCBs
There's quite a few people selling those PCBs in the buy/sell forum, you might be able to buy one there.

Re: My Gameboy Zero Build with Custom PCBs
Got my main boards in today. I would say I am 99% done. Need to get the top of the case secured. I have some Audio noise. and still waiting on my 1mm acrylic to make a replacement for the original screen cover.

Re: My Gameboy Zero Build with Custom PCBs
prerunnerseth, WOW! That is a work of art!
I'm relatively new to this scene, but I've got a small background in electronics from my engineering days, but I wanted to know where/how are people getting these PCB boards printed?
I'd love to try my hand at some custom PCB boards but just don't know where or how I'd get them made.
I'm UK based if that helps.
