Same thing at 5 for $35 è $7 each

Too bad they didn't use 0.1% (or better) parts for 1k and up.

Jeff Crews is doing a group buy of these decade boards for Splatspace folks. I can gather orders from TriEmbed folks (this Monday's meeting or before) and deliver the boards to one of our later meetings (probably September). Price is $8 each but a bit extra as a donation to Splatspace for Jeff's trouble would be very welcome. (disclosure: I'm a Splatspace board member)

I'll bring a couple to the Monday meeting. I have to take my kid back to school this weekend, but if time allows I'll see if I can make a prototype base to share too.

The item below is a seven decade, 1% 1/2 watt resistor board that allows jumper-selecting a resistance from one ohm to almost 10 megohms in increments of one ohm. You don't really get one ohm steps with 1% resistors, but in practice I've found these boards to be absolutely fabulous for dialing in circuits. And if you have a decent meter you can use that with adjustment to low order values to get a truly precise resistance out of circuit.

I bought five on May 31st and one other item totaling $53 and there was no shipping charge. So for me they were exactly $8 each and they were delivered exactly two weeks after I ordered them.

My plan is to laser cut rectangles of acrylic and mount them so I don't have to worry about shorting the bottoms. A few alternative connection options like binding post/banana jacks will also make them even more convenient.

If anybody wants to run a group buy of these, put me down for three more. :-)
