Datanetics reproduction PCBs on order!

After dragging my feet on this for a number of months, I finally pulled the trigger. 10 PCBs are on order.  Anyone who asked about buying them in November will get first chance to buy.  Any left over will be made available, first come, first serve.

Brackets and stiffeners are being fabricated also.  I have the first prototype end bracket on my desk here and it appears to be an outstanding reproduction of the original in all respects.  Part of this project will require drilling out the rivet holes in these pieces.  You will be able to use the PCB as guide to ensure proper registration of holes between the PCB and the end bracket or stiffener.

Pricing is up in the air, as I will save some money by drilling out the plating in the matrix area of the PCB myself. On the other hand,  I haven’t factored in the cost of the end brackets/stiffeners.
