Title: Black FR4
Post by: Cevin on March 17, 2015, 08:00:57 PM
Not sure if this is the right place for this post, but here goes...

I keep seeing these cool enclosures using black copper clad fr4. Where do you get this stuff? Can you get other colors?

There's a guy in ebay called abcfab that sells this stuff:

You can get it in black, blue and red I think

Yep that's where I get mine. The red is not bad but kind of lightens a bit into a dark-pink sort of way after a while. If you cover in ET then it should stay vibrant red.

I get mine from Bill (abcfab) also. He's a good and ships very fast. I was bummed to find out that he will no longer be carrying the red laminate FR4. I bought all he had left of it 2 weeks ago and will most likely move back to black FR4 when I run out. I do have a huge amount of the CEM boards but I really don't like using them since they are hard to cut down and much more dangerous to sand due to harmful dust.

Yep that's the guy! If he dosen't have what you need on ebay get his email from the ebay page and send him an email requesting what you are looking for. He is a super nice guy and should be able to get you what you need.
