If you mill at home, avoid FR-4 (bad for your lungs). I think you're supposed to use FR-1. But better to just outsource it. 1. Did you try JLCPCB with DHL S

1. Did you try JLCPCB with DHL Shipping? Price is worth it.
2. OSH Park has "Super-Swift" option: https://docs.oshpark.com/services/super-swift/ https://docs.oshpark.com/services/super-swift/
- taf2 5y agoYes use jlcpcb regularly but it’s about 2 weeks turn around with shipping… the super swift option to me seems slower the jlcpcb… 5 business days compared to 2 ? Also 10x cost This is why I’m thinking something like voltera one - since it’s supposed to take 30 minutes… thank you for advice about lungs
- NonEUCitizen 5y agoOSH Park has slower turn-around but ships from Portland area, so may get to you faster. It's not cheap for big boards, but if your board is small, it's ok. Also, all their boards are ENIG (JLCPCB has ENIG but as an option). LPKF is the premium brand for in-house PCB prototyping systems. They even have ones that can do vias. However, they're probably more for industry than home. Not sure where you live, but I think there's a makerspace in the Seattle area that has one.
