And if someone outside the US is reading this and thinks I'm frontin'. Build a bunch of #Signets and send me 4K sats for each one you sell and I'll be referring people in your area to buy from you! Try me.
Here's an example of something I'd be willing to collaborate on with a #BitAxe developer if only the power supply were #OpenSource. https://www.tindie.com/products/makerpals/usb-c-pd-power-delivery-board-65w/
Here are the problems:
1. Shipping costs more than the power supply itself.
2. I'd want to merge this PCB with the BitAxe board
I'll always send bitcoin royalities back to the creator if I am selling something they designed. This is just the sensible thing to do. Even setting aside ethics and legalities, it'd just be foolish to burn a bridge with the person you depend on. You know that's just going to result in a non-commercial clause in the next thing. Plus, even if it didn't, you suffer if the dev can't afford to keep making cool stuff.
I mean, just do the math. If I can ship them for $7 less and produce them at a cost comparable to their price, there's $7 we can split between me, the developer, and any software developer who made any of the libraries or tools that we depend on. Sure, it's only going to be like $1 per person per unit, but nobody except me has to do any additional work. It seems like a no-brainer.
Discussion
I have been entertaining the idea of building some Signets for myself, but so far I failed to find the required hardware information.
It's in https://gitlab.hax0rbana.org/signet/signet-cad
Can you help me make it easier for others to find?
I got to it by going to hax0rbana.org/signet selecting Source Code at the top and then choosing the repo with "cad" in the name.
Where can I put a link which would be easier to find?
