I never majored in engineering, but I just got into PCB designing with KiCad.

The price of getting custom PCBs from China plummeted in the past decade, but just now exploded in price due to tariffs. Nuts!

Would be a great opportunity for a US startup to fill the gap!

From the outside, feels like the tariff situation is way too volatile for that "great opportunity" to amount to more than gambling with dice.
