Hi folks 
I was given a small exposure box used for making printed circuit boards a while back, but didn't really think about it too hard as I had a lot of other stuff going on back then.
However, to pass the time during some R&R after a recent car accident, I started properly exploring a really good circuit design app for android I'd found, and soon after got into serious research and learnin mode. It wasn't long before I ended up using what recycled materials I had been randomly collecting for scratch building and modding (coupled with a smattering of bargain hunting on the side) so I could turn my awesome new circuit designs into actual PCBs for my replica projects (I was getting massively annoyed with having to solder componants to loose wiring anyway).
(The purple A/C drive that controls the the extraction fan, and 98% of the mini drill press were made from recycled parts I got from the scrap bins at work. Laminator was an ebay bargian as it was jammed, 10 minutes out the box and one screwdriver later, I had it working again)
So, first out of the new and improved man shed that might also be useful to you guys are some tiny voltage regulator modules measuring 22.3 x 9 x 3.3mm (L*W*H).
Min input 6.2v to 18v max/5v 1A out
I looked about for small regulator modules, and while the ones I found were very cheap, I needed something smaller and more streamlined to sit next to and run a tiny 15x15mm 5v fan in my nerf PR for cooling a 12v internal charger I'm installing (still WIP), but they can also be used for other 5v items in the same situation where space is an issue and the supply voltage is too high for them.
I have enough 5v regulators left to make a total of 6 modules for £1.55 each if anyone wants one, and facilitate easy instalment into your projects, I'll solder any combo of the following to the input and output during assembly for an extra 8p to cover parts.
-----------------------------------------------
• 2x tinned open ended wires (100mm each red/black . Can be longer on request for an additional 4p per 100mm)
• pre crimped two pin male or female molex connectors (approx 100mm fly leads)
• vertical or right angle female molex connectors
• vertical or right angle header pins
The regulator PCB can also be waterproofed with a glue lined heatshrink shroud for an additional 12p
New shipping prices as follows (module will be sent as letter in jiffy bags):
UK = 62p (first class)
US (Econamy international 5-7 w/d) = £1.28
Tracked = £6.28
Post here if want one, and PM me your address including your chosen extras (if any), I'll then give you my paypal info and a total.
To avoid any issues, please DON'T send monay as a gift through PayPal.
Once I have recived payment I will assemble (including any of the extras if chosen), and test your module.
I will aim to post it out next working day (gives time for etching if needed), or in case of dad time interruptions, no later than two days after perchase. Weekend purchases will be posted the following monday.
Proof of posting will be sent to all buyers, along with tracking numbers where applicable.
Status list (for shipping and stuff)
1.Teragon - 1 module (payment recieved). Module is assembmed and ready for shipping.
