Hope to see you all there!  In the meantime, the Open Source Hardware Association has posted photos and videos of OHS 2015 last year in Philly:

The One Square Inch Project on Hackaday.io has produced some amazing results!  Hackaday recently announced the winners:

Projects that fit in a square inch

Howdy – I’m Drew Fustini and am delighted to have joined the OSH Park team this week!

As a founding member of the Open Source Hardware Association, I’ve long admired the critical role that OSH Park plays in many Open Source Hardware projects.

I’m also a Maker Faire junkie and always enjoy seeing beautiful purple PCBs in projects.  It was awesome to meet the OSH Park team at the traditional post-Maker-Faire #BringAHack dinner last year.  I even found the courage to inch my way close enough to OP Shark to snap this GIF:

So stay tuned to this blog to see what amazing things people are making with purple PCBs!

 

OSH Park is pleased to offer a new PCB option:

2 Layer 2oz 0.8mm Service

A special stackup intended for a variety of high-power and low weight circuit designs. This service features a 0.032″ (0.8mm) thick PCB, and includes 2oz (2.8mil, 70um) copper. That’s half the thickness of our standard boards, and with twice the copper!

Pricing

$5 per square inch, which includes three copies of your design. For example, a 2 square inch board would cost $10 and you’d get three copies of your board. You can order as many copies as you want, as long as they’re in multiples of three.

Turn Times

Orders are sent to fabrication every two weeks, and have a turn time from the fab of one week.

You can get a quote, approve a design, and pay for an order at OSH Park.
