Need help sourcing MintyPi Screen

[fsatatkid]

Hey guys. So, I've built a few small things with raspberry pi before, nothing major, but I saw the MintyPi build video today, and decided to make a go of it. I ordered everything from the parts list, except for the screen/pcb. The last post I can find about it said he did another round of orders in June, which are sold out, Is there any other way to get my hands on the screen/pcb combo? Is there an alternative I can use? Will there be more available any time?

Thanks in advance for the help.

There will be another round in a few weeks - keep an eye on the forums. I'll also post on instagram/facebook/twitter when they go up.

Read the first post in my sale thread which has a link to it in my Signature.

Oh, awesome man! Thanks! Can't wait to get started!

While I've got you here I had two other questions. For the screws on the parts list you listed the diameter and threading, but what length should I use?

Also what diameter solder should I use? I usually use 1mm for board type stuff, but in the video it looked like your solder was smaller than that. Maybe 0.7?

The size mention is the correct type used, the threading there aren't many options in that size. M2x6mm is the 2mm diameter of the shaft (it's really 1.8mm) and the 6mm is the length. You're best bet is to get a laptop screw kit.
