Re: PCB Designers!
A bit off topic but related to Original thread.
TLDR: Probably going to be making lots of things "just because" I am learning lol.
I purchased a 4 axis cnc kit from ebay, before I did any reading about the actual stepper drivers i purchased (stupid, I know). Well, While waiting for them to show up, I discovered that they are essentially paperweights as shipped. They won't be usable until I modify the circuits for safer operation.
I had a 3 axis kit from Probotix and wanted to use the drivers included with that kit, but I like having the SD and standalone functionality of Ramps (spoiled by 3d printing)
I needed a way to adapt the pololu sockets to a 10 pin IDC header, looks like a job for what is quickly becoming a new hobby lol.
Hopped on amazon and ordered some 10p idc male headers, and drew up a board.
Here's what I came up with. This is actually pretty fun, and OSHPark's pricing is damn affordable to me, I don't have to mess with chemicals, toner transfers (although, my official profession is Copier Wholesaler) and worrying about proper etching.

Re: PCB Designers!
I use such a cheapo gearbest cnc, and color the pcb's with uv paint, and cover them with transparent sheet and blackspots, same thing for covering paste but then with cutouts in the sheet..
Good luck dude,
edit: if it's ebay don't worry you have a legal ground to try and use it and return if you didn't like the product.
ebay rules.

4 Axis CNC Kit For Nema17 Nema23 Nema34 Motor 4 * TB6600HG Stepper Driver 5A
Is what I bought. After re-work they will be good drivers for my purpose, plus i'll have a spare for either a rotary axis or just a spare.
I am well aware of ebay's return policy, which is why I found one from a US Seller, Return shipping to china is way to cost prohibitive, most people just eat the cost if they get a bad deal from a chinese seller.
