I've ordered my first batch of boards. The dimming, and power
strips PCBs are on the way from someplace in China. I went as cheap as
possible so they'll take a little bit to get here. In the mean time,
I've written an application the combines all my build material excel
files into one master list. Right now I'm just doing silly little things
on the project as I wait to slowly buy things.
Apparently some PCB manufactures don't like when you pre-panelize a gerber file and will charge a "fee" in such occurrences. I was dinged with an extra $15 because the Power Outlet PCB was four copies on one board. The middle man I went though was really helpful though. He said that if I ever need to do that again, that he has another factory that will accept panelized PCB's for just a little extra. They will also cut out each board.
