Do I really need to get out the soldering-iron again?

I used to use BatchPCB and LOVED the service. When Sparkfun shut it down I couldn't find any decent alternatives and pretty much just quit making boards.

It looks like Osh Park has a pretty decent offering these days, but I'm curious who you're using with 9 day turnaround time? That's amazing!

I ordered some from jlpcb on a Monday and by Friday they were here. Express shipping brought it to $19 shipped for 10 boards. I’m sure most places like that are similar in lead times.

In the U.S., OSH Park is 5 day turn. Order on Monday, ships Friday.

(This is using their Swift service on two layer boards, which is surprisingly only $10/sqin per set of 3, compared against the usual $5. Plus they're made in the U.S. so it's local shipping.).

(Note: I haven't used Osh Park in awhile, but they were great when I did use them and I've seen people still recommend them recently.)

EDIT: Though it looks like Osh Park doesn't do stencils.

JlcPCB do a similar batch-of-customer-boards thing and deliver in about a week from China to California

I use PCBway and generally get all my designs within an 8 day turnaround time.
