[quote author="ppsati"]Hi,sparkybg.
It will be possible to use this OLED display?

You may try, but I am sceptical about it. It has different resolution. You will have to at least change the init routine, even if the controller and pins are compatible with ssd1306, which I don't know.

[quote author="overheater"]Or, give the 1206 some help with hot glue. I think that will work - but it is not the "fine" way.....[/quote]

Hot glue will give you nothing. The problem is that the resistors are not flexible. And the hot glue will not make them flexible.

I removed some posts in this topic. We don't discrimate overhere nor do assumptions about people based on regions.

I choose to let the post here of tto4ka. I see it as a service he bought stuff and assembled the kit for other who can't do it.

He talks about business inquiries. This is pretty far from my definition of "support".

I will gladly encourage anyone to help others build this project more easily, but as I see it, this is not a case.
In fact, if he just asked for permission prior doing this, with clear enough conditions and prices, I would probably grant it. But the way he done it I take as a dishonor of my work and will to share.

If you intend letting other's make business from my project without my permission, then I will simply stop supporting it. The choice is yours.

It is not my intend.. All I say things aren't black an white. From the post I see he boughts parts and offers that he can send that to a fellow forummember. Perhaps he is only charging a 10% for that, and for what I read from you that is ok with you..

Sparkybg. What diameter of copper wire should be sufficient for jbc t245 cartridges? I'm going to make tool by myself.

...and perhaps not. :) Do you know it for sure?

In either case, a required way to act is to ask the author first even if you make 0.0001% profit. And the problem is - he has not done this.

That would brake the whole thread, as answers to your question will stay there. If you really want to delete your stuff you got the option to edit/remove the posts you made yourself. (edit button).

I really don't like what i happening in here. People posting offers messing up this topic.

Yes i did ordered and excess number of boards, and yes I did offer the excess in here, but I made it to keep the cost low, not for profit. I really don't like the fact, that some one gets more boards from me, and then puts them on sale in this topic with higher price. This is just sick.

Sparkybg, did fantastic job building this project and if he says you can't make profit out of it, you can't. End of story.

As far as I can tell is 14 USD approximately the same as 12 EUR (the price you are offering the PCBs) so I don't see much 'extra' profit in there.

If you are referring to another post or user I missed please tell me and I'll look into the matter.

Guys,

Can someone share a link or part number for correct usb connector (best would be from tme.eu or mouser.com because I will be ordering parts from them), farnell had only one vertical usb connector and guess what footprint is wrong...

Thank you!

I've bought an Wurth Electronics 651005136421 and it fits nice but not tight, though its row spacing is 1.8 mm instead of 2.2 mm in the footprint. It's the only difference.

I think mounting holes are made intentionally bigger than should be to accommodate slight differences between connectors.
