It's actually a thru hole design but if I could get someoene to cut them accurately it would be huge.
Right now we have a metal fabricator putting holes in by hand.
I know that alot of you builders get boards cut and drilled to spec so I was hoping someone could recomend a place to do a very accurate thru hole: It isn't for a pedal it's for my day job- Magnetics YO!
I need
0.09" Thick Epoxy Glass laminate Sheet (G-10 basically)
UL flammability rating of 94V-2 or better (material isn't an issue I can source it)
I have drawings in PDF that I can supply
About 32 holes in the board of different sizes and the quote I got now from my main source is rediculous in both price and lead time.
Definately some long term business:
Any suggestions?
Need a PC board company- any recomendations

Not afraid of china, Just got back, and I think long term i will have to build over there but I need 16 units out ASAP, I will probably just end up paying the higher US cost for now.

I use Pad2Pad. Their boards are good quality. They have a software for n00bs to design the boards, or you can upload a drill file. I shopped around a while back and their prices were in line with anything else, and they had all sorts of options for material, colour, etc.

I get big runs done at http://www.custompcb.com
Great prices and really nice finishing. I'm not sure if they can meet all your design requirements, but it can't hurt to ask.
