Here are some pictures etc.
great work bajaman,please post the final schematics ,i would like to do a single side pcb to share
thanks
Nice layout! Thanks for sharing.
OSHPark's pricing is $5 per square inch for 3 boards. Since your board measures 4.38x4.88 inches, that's 21.4 square inches, or about $107 for three boards.
That's just over $35 per board. Seems pricey. Are there any other PCB manufacturers that offer better pricing? Or is this really what you guys pay for boards?
Also, what size enclosure would this require? The 1590BB is the biggest I've used, and those measure 3.7x4.7 inches -- almost long enough in the longer dimension, but a half inch too short in the shorter dimension.

What is your opinion on counterfeiting?
Do you feel that the market should not dictate the price of a product and that there should be some limit to what stompbox builders can earn?
Is there an "activist" role that DIY people should play to punish companies that charge above a reasonable limit?
