There's one just ended on E-Bay!!!

I've had duplicate boards made in the past (eg. the Econet module and
SJ Econet clock with slight modifications) and although the cost is fairly
prohibitive (hence the selling price of these items) I'm sure it could be
done if there is any demand.

It's almost certainly not economic to do anything less than 50 and I don't
think I could ever shift that many.

One of the major components of the cost in the past has been the PCB
artwork, they said that this cost would not arise if I ever needed a second
run (!!!) of anthing, so if somebody else could do this work, it might bring
down the overall cost a bit.

There are several people on the list who are selling items with manufactured
PCBs, somebody might be able to produce a board a lot cheaper than my
method of sending one off to somebody and saying "Make me this".

One obvious area of improvement (apart from the resistor which seems to
run ridiculously hot) is the SCSI connector which would benefit from a
more solid set of pins going into the BBC motherboard connector.

Best wishes,


Ian
