I got a question about how to order boards from OSH Park, and I'll answer it here. I keep forgetting that this stuff isn't second nature for folks who don't do it for a living.
Ok,
OSH Park is a printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturer which caters to folks building prototypes and very small runs. They're quite excellent for making boards for our hobby stuff. They have a feature called "Shared Projects" which is especially nice for the kinds of stuff that we do here: Once somebody like me designs a board and uploads the design files to OSH Park, we have the option to share the project so that anybody can order it without needing to know about the tricky details of creating or uploading PCB artwork. If you order one of my shared projects, you get the exact same cost as I do for the bare boards, and I don't get a cent. I won't even know that you ordered boards unless you feel like telling me. You'll still need to order the parts yourself and solder them on. This board is pretty simple, with two through-hole connectors and a few jumpers.
If you haven't used
OSH Park before, you'll need to register there first:
Once you've signed up, go to the
project link that I shared and click "Order now":
You need to order a multiple of 3 boards at a time. There's actually a technical reason for this constraint, which is all tied up in how printed circuit boards are manufactured, and how OSH Park batches up production runs in order to offer such low prices.
This is still a do-it-yourself project, and you'll need to order the components yourself from someplace like
Digi-Key. If you go to the
Github page for this board and scroll down to the bottom, you'll find part numbers for the components:
