(Found) WTB:Digikey PCB ruler
« on: July 30, 2018, 04:18:07 pm »
I am looking for second best (at best) PCB ruler in the world. I know they are available on Digikey but shipping is killer.

If anybody has one or two then please send a PM.

you could just take the Adafruit design and double it... then you can make it wherever you prefer for cost purposes.

or even better than doubling the adafruit one, design your very own exactly how you want. It's not rocket surgery.
You can put on an actual circuit where you have a button cell and a micro that flashes a bunch of LEDs, or something.


these ones look cool.

Getting one manufactured is definately going to be expensive because of size limitation of cheap manufacturer.

I have one that you can have for free, should be ~$13.75 to ship to Germany. Got it from a trade show a few months back.

Shipping a killer

I've got a spare one.
As soon as the environmental heat permits me walking to the local Post shop, I'm gonna mail you that one, may take a few days.
