Gert board build

Former Member
Former Member over 13 years ago

Ok, so I don't have the money to buy a Gert board, but I might have a solution to get it done cheap. I remember seeing that the Gerber files for the board were somewhere, but I'm unable to find them through the web.If Gert van Loo could provide the link to that it would be great. I also need a list of all the components. Please. Now my plan is this. I plan on using the Gerber to send off with a group of electronic hobbyist to have it done cheap, and I plan on trying to get as many of the components from the various venders as samples, see what spare stuff is at my school, and buy the rest. I figure if I do it right I should be able to have a Gert board for maybe around 20 dollars as opposed to the 45 pounds plus shipping I saw it at.

    In case you hadn't seen  it, you can buy the PCB by itself, which I think would be cheaper than using a PCB house to make one, but perhaps not cheaper if you intend to etch it yourself.

     

    In Aus dollars it is $9.50 which is about US$10.00 and UK  GBP 6.00

    Interestingly, the bare pcb doesn't seem to be available in the uk even though your au link lists 390 available for delivery from the uk warehouse !

    How strange, more often it's the UK that has parts that are not available to other E-14 outlets.
