Can anybody recommend some makers of PCB's for the hobbyist? I am looking for makers of mainly single sided, but some double sided boards, for home hobby projects. Only need quantity 1 or 2. Low cost is most important driver. Am aware of futrelec, but are there others?


I have used BatchPCB a couple of times for small runs/prototyping. Good delivery, very cheap, no significant setup charges. Just upload your Gerbers to their website, and you get an instant check and price. There are some limitations, like no re-entrant holes or funny cutouts, but otherwise single and double sided incl plate-thru is fine.

Also pcbcart.com which I and others have used and have been happy with.

Thanks Adrian and Dennis. I will give them a try when my board is ready.

I've been happy with - they have a very cheap prototyping service, and will panelise and depanelise (straight-snap) including silkscreen, etc.

seems slightly cheaper than pcbcart for one-offs faster too.

Having beaten my head against the wall with the same question for many years, I threw in the towel and started my own PCB batching service.

2-sided boards, both sides soldermask, both sides silkscreen, 100% flyprobe-tested, and immersion-gold finished, at $1.50 per square inch with no setup fee, no minimum. Yes, you can order just one board!
