How easy is it to order a batch with the files? Hoping I have the opportunity to just buy one off you directly :mrgreen:

Hi,
I have been following this post closely, do anyone know if this kit would provide a cheap option for making these pcb's in the UK, as I don't think I would be able to import one.

Any clear tutorials I would be grateful.

Thanks in advance.

I mentioned this before but I'm going to be organizing a bulk shipment for Germany. Everything will be done at cost. Reach out to me if you are interested in being part of it so I know how many I'm ordering. Thanks!

I'm looming at ordering 15ish board to the UK, waiting on quote back.
