I'll send you more than one from the second batch. Even I couldn't have one for myself from the first batch.

In the second batch i'll have more TapuinoMini's, because i'll make the design 10cm x 10cm so there will be 8 panelized TapuinoMini's instead of 2 in each PCB. This way i'll get 96 TapuinoMini's for 25 USD, very good deal.

Thanks for reminding me a little waste of money ... :banghead:
Unfortunately i got them before they were fixed ...
After having tried to divide just one without success, other PCBs are still ... twinned! :drinkin:
If you want them ... make a bargain: 2 in 1! :lol:

@c64new: I'm sorry to hear that. You missed with only one day, before i discovered about panelizing.

May be you can cut with a dremel to seperate the twins.

BTW I can send you some from my second batch, so stay in touch with me. ;)

@ ozayturay
Do not worry, I was joking with sweetlilmre he wanted PCBs mini ... :lol:
Next time look a bit of time before ordering :roll:
I have tried using the Dremel but there is little space between the PCB's and then it takes little to go wrong! Then the PCB-vetronite is very abrasive and then destroys the blades of Dremel quickly ...
This is one of the 'cuts' (not too good):

Maybe a metal ruler and a hobby knife/cutter can be used to cut partly into both sides after which they will break along that line?

I tried that too ...
But it always ruins the corners!
The PCB not subtle

Can you put a photo of the front side?

Here the top side of the PCB:

It seems to me that here are some pin of the 'memory-reader' inverted ...

Would this type of tile cutter work in cutting pcbs?
