RE: [N8VEM-S100:2411] Re: Board Run: Unbuffered Prototyping

Hi Steven,

I'm ok with this arrangement, but Andrew is not.  It still burdens him with the administration and it will further complicate payment.  Further, it does nothing to relieve paypal traffic to his account.

Please be patient and let me work out the pricing and then we'll have real numbers we can work with.

Regards,
Josh

My concern based on my past experience with Canada postal service charge which it is very expensive as much as like British postal service. But I think I may have a good idea to avert this incident. You can ask PCB factory to split shipping package into two. One can go to Canada directly and other will go to Andrew (if he is willing for you) to re-mail the boards to buyers in USA.

What do you think this suggestion?
Steven

Yes, I am going to go price things out this week...  I've got my fingers crossed and I'm hoping to be able to produce the boards for a little less to make up for higher shipping costs.  Shipping in Canada is a rip off compared to the USA.

Additional pair of stand-off holes great idea!  +1

I haven't been keeping close count, but it's now looking like a "standard' run of 30'ish boards would fit your guidelines.  We seem to be closing in on 20 commitments, aside from whatever your desires may be.

Thanks for the "OMO" explanation!  I'm not a gamer, although I do agree with the rest of the OMO credo :->.

Trained? Yes, I can now roll over and I do a pretty good "fetch" too.

Life time buy is good, the thing with these boards and why I'm not worried to build a lot of them, is they can be used for any project.  You can ignore the S-100 bus, mount a regulator and go.  I'm planning on adding two more holes on the bottom 2 corners, so regular standoffs can be used to mount the board.

OMO?  That is for my old "Clan" name from my days of playing Homeworld.  Stands for "Old Men Online".  The clan is still around, I don't participate much anymore, but they are mature gamers that have earned a good reputation in the gaming community.  But watch out for "CrankyOMO", he can be a little impatient at times.  Google Old Men Online, you'll find their web page.

All "trained" Josh ::->?

Anyway ... I've decided to stock up along with Steven.  Please list me for 7 boards, which for me ought to definitely be a lifetime-supply .... grabbing for the gusto (well) in advance!

Thanks.  May one inquire (and get a reply :->) as to the acronym expansion for "OMO"?

Thanks Matt.

I'm going to verify pricing first, once I know the exact the cost, I'll announce it to the group.
I expect shipping to be more, but I hope to get a cheaper price for the board.  Then we need to guess the exchange rate.

Cheers,
Josh

Please put me down for two (2) boards. I'll keep them just in case. Let me know who to wire the Paypal to.

Thanks for chiming in Steven,  ok, then it's settled.  I am in a training course this week, but I can start the process of production next week.

Cheers,

Hi,

I live in northern Virginia. I am interesting to purchase 6 unbuffered prototyping board for this coming March due to my restricted budget. I am not surprise about many people may not interesting to buy the prototyping boards because of tremendous expensive to buy wirewarp equipment nowadays.

Secondly, I am still thinking about drilling/milling machine (see eBay and search for 3020 desktop router engraver drilling/milling engraving machine cnc. Also, see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=na9-USi_hZQ NOTE: should have large clear plexiglass enclosure to avoid fiberglass dust into lungs. The only disadvantage about this method that have lack of vias (between layers. It may need to solder both sides as much as like old days with Tarbell Cassette Interface board.

This will be great for prototyping work???

Josh:  Both Steven Feinsmith and myself have recently expressed interest in a run of the unbuffered prototyping board.  I have brought this topic up several times over the past year or so (most recently 2-3 weeks ago, without response) but there's been insufficient interest (borderline none) and I haven't had sufficient immediate need to strike out on my own with a run of only a few much-more-expensive boards.  I'd like to see us get the volume up to the point that we approach/reach the $20 per-board cost, but that means at least 20 boards.  I'm not sure that each of us wants 7 boards ... but three interested parties is certainly better than just one :->.

I'm located in Maryland; not sure where Steven is located.  I gather that CA-US shipping cost is asymmetric -- here-to-there is cheaper than there-to-here?

I'd be willing to serve as "trail boss" if there's sufficient interest.  Andrew did offer to get me started last week, but I still await sufficient interest ...

Can I get commitments on board counts from interested folks, please?

Thanks,

paul

Hi Group,
 
I am thinking of helping out and doing a board run.  I was planning on doing the unbuffered prototype board, but Andrew thought someone else here may already have that in motion?  First, let me start by saying I'm in Canada, so it may be a little more costly to ship to the US, but internationally it might not make any difference.
 
Can we hear a vote of which boards to build, and a show of hands who might want to build them?
 
I don't want to organize the group... but with a little communication I believe we can organize ourselves.
 
Regards,
Josh
