DirtyPCBs support / Re: Please try the new site :)
[quote author="tve"]> What do you expect for a $14 pcb service? We deliver your boards in a black rolls royce at your doorstep on full moon? Check your board with the design rule check. If no errors your board will be fine (at least it wont break the boardhoude rules). Hard to tell if the board will work as intended though..

Mhh, I though I asked politely, not sure why you need to respond in that tone. If you really want to know, OSH park has great previews and (in my limited experience) to the US the boards arrive significantly faster. I didn't know that rendering the previews costs you extra.
:-([/quote]

If I understand it correctly, OSH Park boards are manufactured in the US, so they would arrive faster.

General discussion / Re: Multiple boards and shipping
I know this thread is old but just for completeness if someone else is wondering the same, I have included a response.

You may panalize the multiple designs onto one large PCB that you can later snap apart into the different sub-sections. There is information on how to do this on this forum but exact instructions depend on the software used to make the PCB designs. If you do this, then choose the size of your overall panel.

You may also submit each design separately on a single order. On the upload page, there is an "Add" button that allows for different designs to be uploaded. Each will be uploaded as its own file, have it's own settings (color, size, etc), and be on its own PCB so no breaking apart will be necessary. This will combine the multiple designs into one large order with combined shipping.

DirtyPCBs support / Re: Please don't use the new site! (for now)
Hey, Ian! I originally placed an order on the 21st when the new site was operational and found out on the 28th that there was an issue with the gerbers. I updated the gerbers the same day and the status has changed to "Order Recieved." I prefer the gerbers get to the board house ASAP so they can be checked but I don't know if the maintenance is going to affect my order at all. Is all well or should I place the order on the old site instead?

DirtyPCBs support / Re: V-Groove and Routed Slot
Wanting to have nice smooth edges around my board and my layout isn't a rectangle so I can't v-groove around it all; I need some slots put in too.

DirtyPCBs support / V-Groove and Routed Slot
I see the new site has an option for v-groove and I have a few questions about it:

What layer (and gerber file) do I put the v-groove lines in?

Is it possible to have a board that has both v-grooves and routed slots? Something like the attached image. If so, how would I go about doing that?
