Quick question, does any one know any fab that can do sub 75um (3
mils) on PCBs? (in case anyone has come across this)
Anything below 75um would probably be lithography based and very
expensive but just wondering. (seems Sierra circuits and? Omni PCB
are the only manufacturers with these capabilities)

Circuithub is the same concept. I like them
too...Macrofab is cheaper, but for all I know....they are just
producing the stuff overseas when it is no longer a prototype
service. In all...I think this quoting process is the future of
manufacturing.?

They take Kicad projects and build your BOM online which makes
takes care of the parts problem pretty simply.? I can't say
they're cheap or expensive, I don't have enough experience
with short run manufacturers - I know when we looked at real
production quantities they were more expensive than
traditional assembly houses.? I live near Boston and there are
still a decent number of smaller contract manufacturers who
are very good for production.
Their online tools are good, now that they support Kicad again
(they were caught unaware with the 4 to 5 file format
changes.)? I've loaded boards there and used their component
selection tool just to create my initial AVL, their lead time
tool makes it pretty easy to tune cost versus delivery.? For
my projects they, and everyone I checked with, were too
expensive for me to justify for hobby boards.
