Re:There is now an API to build low-volume hardware products by pmorici on Thursday February 20, 2014 @04:32PM (#7273757)
Interesting, any insight into how cost effective this is for small volume runs? Say several hundred to 1k. I've got a simple design I'm going to build and I'm currently weighing just ordering all the boards and components and doing the assembly myself vs outsourcing all the manufacturing not having built physical hardware before it's been really hard for me to get a sense of what the costs will be.

That's exactly the sort of volume we are looking to cost optimise. As for absolute cost it's really difficult to say, it depends so much on the exact configuration of your board.

If you would like to upload a design the quote is pretty much instant!
