I’m looking for a nice, one night project for a stem youth group I work with and the Cataractapult would be a nice change of pace. But…

  1. I don’t support his politics or views.
  2. 15 USD a piece is too expensive for just bare pcbs.
  3. They aren’t available anymore anyway.

If I had the files, I could just get a small pile of them made, have one for every kid and have enough left over for the club sell for fund raising.

For reference, this is what the Cataractapult is.

    • “I don’t like the dude but still want his products”
    • “I do not wish to pay what is a reasonable price for a bare pcb if bought from anywhere but china”
    • “can you guys help me steal the design from him so that he cannot profit from his work and effort?”

    What the hell do you expect, my man?

      I’m asking if anyone knows if there are clone pcbs anywhere.

      Also, $15 is not a reasonable price for a single ~8cm by ~8cm pcb anywhere. The youth group has around 20 kids in it. I’m not pulling $300 from the club funds for something like this.

      Also, how is it stealing if he’s not producing them anymore anyway? I thought his politics were known by now anyway, but I dropped him when he did his little Pro “Freedom Convey” towards the end of Covid. I later found out he thought his daughter racial slurs.
