Line 2: == Advantages == This method might seem more expensive, however in the long term it isn't. Professionally produced PCBs can offer much higher quality multi-layer boards, trimmed to size, tinned, [[soldermask\|solder masked]], [[silkscreen\|silk-screened]], drilled and plated through vias. These will make assembly easier and save time that might otherwise be spent on [[debugging]] potentially low-quality and unreliable PCBs.<ref>[https://www.guitarscanada.com/index.php?threads/building-pedals.76804/ Building pedals,...], by mhammer, The Canadian Guitar Forum, ~~Nov~~6 Feb ~~2007~~2016</ref><!-- add something about smt stencils --> === Order pooling === Line 12: == Manufacturers == A list of PCB manufacturers who are ~~more~~ economical for low volume production.
