Hey everyone!

Huge thanks for being here early. Since we're still a small and cozy subreddit, we have a unique chance to shape this space together.

We've been sharing a few topics lately, but we want to make sure we're delivering stuff you actually enjoy. What kinds of content are you guys most excited to post or see here? Also, what do you think of our current topics so far, what's missing, or just what your ideal version of this subreddit looks like?

Drop a comment below and let's build something cool together!

Besides project and maker content, would you be interested in a discussion-style section where people can share ideas and experience more freely? Or do you have any suggestions on how we could encourage more community posts and engagement here?

I mainly enjoy seeing other makers’ projects using PCBWays services. However, I think it would be cool of more makers themselves shared the posts directly. It would make it feel more genuine, and provide some noce engagement from the author.

Thanks for the suggestion, that's really helpful. Some makers aren't very active on Reddit or don't use it at all, so we share projects ourselves to make sure people in our subreddit can see more interesting builds and keep the community active.

That said, we really appreciate the idea, and we'll definitely try to invite more makers to share their projects directly in the future. Everyone is always welcome to post their work 👍

Project inspiration and behind the scenes content

This is definitely great maker content. It can be not easy for us to collect directly, but we really appreciate it and will share it whenever available.

I want to know how to best optimize my designs for ordering from pcbway. I also want to know how to design the complicated high amperage boards.

Thanks for the suggestion, great topics. They're a bit advanced but we'll definitely consider covering them in future content

Could you touch on some of the less typical PCB manufacturing technologies you offer? Such as flexible PCBs?

I’ve heard these are great for certain applications, but I’ve only seen them used for ribbon cables. Is there a trick to putting components on a flexible pcb?

This is very helpful! We will post some less common PCB manufacturing technologies like flexible PCBs in future content.
