I'm willing to sell my main boards as well, but it would be costly to get them made with all the components installed. I would be more than happy to sell them blank provided the buyer can solder the components. I would even probably be happy to sell them with just the 3QFN chips soldered which are the only 3 components that require a hot air rework station to solder.Rod2D2 wrote:

I also watched your video. Once you perfect your raspberry pi gameboy rev 4 will you be producing more to sell? If so any idea how much they will be? Looks like a very clean build that will take up less space.
If you can provide a solder stencil with the orders it should be a piece of cake to solder the components on with a heatgun/reflow station. Is that something you can provide?prerunnerseth wrote: I'm willing to sell my main boards as well, but it would be costly to get them made with all the components installed.

Its possible, but most people wouldn't even know how to use a stencil and don't have a rework station. I don't use a stencil myself, but I solder these kind of parts on a daily basis. usually bigger and with way more pins. thats why I was thinking an option where I only solder the DFN/QFN parts. the rest can be done with a home solder station with a decent tip.Helder wrote:If you can provide a solder stencil with the orders it should be a piece of cake to solder the components on with a heatgun/reflow station.

Ok, Ill let you know. its just one board besides the button board. its designed to work with the adafruit 3.2" PiTFT.Helder wrote:I'll take a set of the boards if you decide to sell them bare but include the ICs. I'm a pretty good solderer so it shouldn't be an issue.
I'm an average solderer and I only really have a soldering iron so would this be something I would be able to handle? I'm by no means at the level that you two guys are, just an average electronic hobbyist. Having the complicated parts presoldered would be great.Helder wrote:I'll take a set of the boards if you decide to sell them bare but include the ICs.

Besides the ICs most things are 0603 or bigger surface mount components.Rod2D2 wrote:I'm an average solderer and I only really have a soldering iron so would this be something I would be able to handle?
