An HP-16C or a Baldur's Gate 3 Macro Pad? Yes.
You can find the project's descript_ion here: https://hackaday.io/project/197057-an-hp-16c-or-a-baldurs-gate-3-macro-pad-yes 1) Ease of transaction. It couldn't have been easier to get this done. The KiCAD plug-in is convenient, and PCBWay reviews the design, gets it into production and out the door very quickly. 2) Quality. The board looks fantastic, and populating the components was a breeze. I was really impressed. I have used their competitor in the past, and the quality of the board matches anything I've had done elsewhere. 3) Price. Note that I did not pay for either manufacture or shipping for this project. A 100mm x 100mm is very inexpensive to get done. As this board is 200mm x 125mm, the cost does go up. I generally try to make projects smaller to keep it at that magical $5 price. Note, however, that I did have to pay duty in this country to import those boards. 4) Conclusion. I highly recommend getting PCBs done in this way if you want to take your protoboard projects to the next level. I have made many PCBs using copper clad boards and etchant. Once my projects became too complex, this was no longer feasible.
