I can't post a reply... There's some error, here it is: ///////////////////// We're sorry, but we were unable to complete your request at this time. ////////////////////
And here is my reply: With all this quoting, it isn't as easy as I would want to, but well... Here's my response :-D I agree with you, Single sided is the best for a first version. When prints will be made at a professional service, they could be double layered. About the price, I can get a Freeduino for just €16 (http:// www.samenkopen.net/action_product/795718/462690 - dutch website) The next version is a lot more expensive, but also SMD. I won't go for that just yet :) The problem with JAL is for starters.. They have to know just too much settings and stuff. An extra library to set those basic settings would be usefull. Especially since the basic package of hardware is the same. The arduino language is really easy because some of the more 'difficult' settings are already set for you. Te knife cut's both sides -> easy for starters, limiting for the more advanced people. But I think this can be fixed by making a custom library for this board.
