Lewis: Larry would be proud of you!
|
I believe we're now at 74 assembled, 4 unassembled kits
|
If it's not too late, put me on the list for one fully assembled kit with the enclosure.
Thanks! |
It seems like a great insurance policy - please put me down for one assembled - is there any info on how/where to remit payment?

If everything is fine, you can use the envelope to send a check, money order, S&H Green stamps (are they even around anymore) or a Dunkin Donuts gift card ;) I will be ordering PCB's and parts to supply 100 units, so there appears still be units available. I will update the thread this weekend after I submit the order for the PCB's and electronic components. |

Please sign me up for a fully assembled kit w/ enclosure.
Thanks so much for putting this together! :cheers: Matt |
Hi everyone,
Here is the latest weekend update ... 100 bare PCB's have been ordered from Advanced Circuits, 5 day fabrication (cheapest) with UPS GND shipping (cheapest). $376 (pcb's) + $20.64 (UPS) = 396.64 ... so less than $4.00 per bare PCB. Components to populate 100 PCB's have been ordered from Digi-Key with UPS GND shipping. $237.83 + 14.86 (MA sales tax) + 11.26 shipping, $263.95 for parts to build 100 boards. I still need to review the list put together by Ash (thank you again) in this thread and order enclosures for those who wanted these included with their order. Those will be coming from Mouser electronics (they were in stock at the cheapest price...$1.50 each or so. My bride has graciously agreed to help me with the logistics (keeping the list of who ordered how many, email/PM, printing shipping address labels on the Dymo label maker, and taking the units to post office. This is good news, since I am not able to balance a checkbook, so I know she will keep things moving smoothly. As soon as the boards and parts arrive, I will begin to start assembling boards (except for those who wanted the "Heathkit" version ... they will be bagged into kits). Again, thanks for your patience and I will keep everyone informed via this thread. We should be shipping these out in a couple of weeks. |
2 Attachment(s)
Please find attached snapshots of the schematic and PCB layout ....
You will note that the PCB carries text denoting wire colors, functions, etc. The PCB is 1.73" x 1.73" The schematic carries all the Digi-Key and manufacturer part numbers as well. |
I'm speachless and truly deeply thankful for your efforts. I'll include you in my payers - rigth after my 993's ....
Thx again. Jack

Oct. 16 update
Sunday update.
Thanks again for the update Lewis....and for the generosity of time in assembling, organizing, and shipping these out.

Thank you again Ash for keeping the list updated.
I have entered your latest list above into Excel and have 79 assembled units requested, 4 kit (unassembled "Heathkit" units requested) ... 83 total and 2 requests for plastic enclosures. At 83 total, I should still have parts for 17 additional requests. If everyone could just please check Ash's list above and correct any mistakes, that would be great. I would really feel bad for someone to order an assembled unit and get a bag of parts instead .... or rob someone who ordered the kit version the "thrill of soldering" . |
Hi --
If it's not too late, I'd love to get two assembled kits. Thanks so much for putting this together -- really epitomizes the rennlist spirit! |

Looking back at the thread, some people indicated that they were interested in the assembled board prior to Lewis' addtion that the enclosures could be optional.
Also, unless otherwise specified below, it is assumed you want an assembled kit. I believe that Lewis is going with terminal blocks as standard. I have updated the list with a note for those that have specifically asked for enclosures. (I also just noticed that Jim W had appeared twice in an earlier list so I've removed the duplicate) As Lewis mentioned, please check your name and request and update as necessary or post here and I'll update. Thanks, ~A
