Anyone by change needing a #pcb from #JLCPCB with either C3322939 (2x10 Pin socket P=2.54mm)) or C598603 (2x10 Pin Header P=2.54mm)?

JLCPCB didn't have these (nor similar) Parts in stock, Because of MOQ I'll end up with some spare parts::
2x C3322939
6x C598603

It's my first time ordering from JLCPCB but if I understood their terms correctly then they won't offer to ship these parts to me, but only keep them in a dedicated inventory for me for future PCBA orders

I don't get excited about Christmas. However, on days like today when I know that two big boxes with #JLCPCB stamped on them will be arriving, I can imagine the excitement that some people get in December. Even though I know what #RC2014 stuff is going to be inside, I can't help but keep looking out the window for the UPS truck!

I made a script that extracts multilayer board stackups from JLCPCB's API, for every layer count, board thickness, and copper weight option.

it translates the raw API data into a clean normalised JSON format, and also into Altium stackup files. the normalised JSON should be easy to consume if you want to build stackups for other EDA tools.

everything is pretty well documented, so it should be easy to modify and update to your needs.

The new (free) marking from #JLCPCB looks not bad.

These are the new version, so selling the screw terminal ones cheap.

These have WAGO contacts, and a microphone for sound reactive.

Arg, #JLCPCB are being especially thick.

They have an error on artwork on preview when ordering, showing a capacitor rotated 180.

They don't seem to understand they need to fix it.

They say check the DFM, but that is later, and means getting it wrong when I upload an order.

One of the niggles I have with #JLCPCB is them stalling an order with a silly question.

A question about a feature on a footprint I have used literally hundreds of times over years.

Like the latest, the holes for the USB-C connector have no solder mask on the back of the board. This is because they do not get close to going all the way through the board.

Every design I have done is like this and works well.

Suddenly they query it.

...

Not sure I like screw terminals, but probably cheapest option for this (LED strip controller).

I think the #KiCAD export tool has changed how it sends parts co-ordinates to the export for #JLCPCB. Driving me round the bend.

There is just to many emails to update this thread.

So far there are 18 mails from #JLCPCB in my inbox.
I send 9 answers.

Also, I used their chat to clarify some things. While it is tedious to make sure all the 'errors' are actually produced the way they are designed, the communication works quite well. The support is responsive, friendly and competent.
