The process of making good designs often includes a few mistakes. Sometimes I'm lucky and get things working on the first try, but more often it takes two or three revisions to get it there. And since the PCB manufacturer I use has a minimum order quantity I end up with a fair amount of scrap.
Rather than throwing them away, I've decided to sell the extra boards here at discount price. It's up to you to get them working. I will provide details of fixes I have made to get them functional, just click on the images to be taken to the details.

Hi Makeatronics
ReplyDeleteIs Smart BLDC Commutator (full assembly) still available? 50 pcs. May I have your contact info? Thank you.
Absolutely loving this section—so many clever uses for scrap parts! It is amazing what can be built with a bit of creativity and a keen eye at the yard. Over in Australia, I have seen more makers and tinkerers sourcing parts through places linked to cash for scrap metal Brisbane services—great way to find components that would otherwise go to waste. Really inspiring stuff here, keep up the awesome work!
ReplyDeleteThis page is a goldmine for anyone curious about the inner workings of scrap yards and the creative possibilities that come from repurposed materials. I love how it highlights the potential in what many consider "junk." At Mr Cash for Cars Perth, we often see how parts from old vehicles can be given a second life, whether through recycling or innovative DIY projects like the ones shared here. Learn More
ReplyDeleteGreat read – this post does a solid job of explaining how scrap yards work and why they play such an important role in recycling and waste reduction. I especially liked the practical insights into what happens to vehicles after they’re scrapped, as it clears up a lot of common misconceptions. As someone who regularly follows blogs like this and works closely with the industry through North Brisbane Wreckers, it’s encouraging to see informative content that highlights both the environmental and economic value of proper vehicle recycling. https://northbrisbanewreckers.com.au/
ReplyDeleteSuch a well-written and informative post — it really breaks down how scrap yards operate and why they’re so important for both recycling and reducing waste. I especially appreciated the clear explanations that make a sometimes complex topic easy to follow. As someone who reads a lot of industry blogs and works in the car removal space with Cash 4 Cars Townsville it’s great to see content that helps everyday readers understand the value of responsible vehicle recycling and reuse.
