Digikey is pricey. My local mom and pop electronics store is a better
source for these guys. Ebay is expensive to, and the product comes
all the way from China. Anyone found a cheap source of PCBs?
Thanks,
Chris Maness

Call pcbexpress or who ever. They all have the blanks. Find one that is
willing to part with it for the right price.
Or you can get a reasonable price from

Pricing depends on a lot of things: base material )standarf FR-4,
high Tg FR-4, FR-5, Teflon (R), Kapton (R), surface smoothness (for HF,
RF), thickness, copper thickness on a given side, sheet size, number of
sheets, etc.
And that assumes the same vendor.
Be X-rated; state eXplicitly what you want / need!

I've seen blank PCB material at ham fests. I buy my material in whole
sheets or scrap from a local PCB fabricator.

Heh,when I was a teen,Spaulding Fiber dumped scrap copper-clad in a dump
near my house. I salvaged a load of pieces 4-6" wide and 3-4 feet long,of
phenolic and epoxy-glass. I still have some of it.
BTW,Skycraft Surplus in Orlando has sheets of single and doublesided
copperclad (FR-4?) for sale.
