Hi there!

I'm visiting the city for 3 months from Toronto, Canada. I am a member of a hacklab back home, and so this was the first place I thought to ask this question.

Basically, I'm looking to have some circuit boards fabricated in Taipei. Specifically, this board:

I'm wondering whether anyone can suggest a company to work with.

I'm hoping to have 15 made in a small run, and then 100 more. A short delivery period of one week would be nice, but I don't know what's standard. An online tool for ordering is a bonus, but being able to find an English-speaking human to talk to (in case of complications) is more valuable.

Thanks so so much for any consideration you can offer! <3

Hi Patrick,

Some of our active member often send their board design to Taobao. The whole process is going to take about one week (send -> make -> delivery from China -> receive).

If you are looking for further information, welcome to our open house! (seems to be today?!)

Hey Patrick,

I'd recommend something like pcbway.com , we're nice and close to it here from Taiwan and they are pretty good for quick and dirty prototype boards. Unfortunately I'm not aware of any good PCB fabs in Taiwan for cheap and fast turnaround pcbs... If anyone else have any recommendations I'm all ears!

Stan

Thanks a billion, Kevin and Stan! I'll compare these two and order soon :)

Also, going to try to drop into the open house tonight, so perhaps I'll see one of you there!
