If there's enough interest we could definitely release a version that's just the PCB. One useful thing about the current design is some engraved tracks that you can feel with your finger. If you wanted that on a custom one, you'd have to be careful with lining up the pcb and acrylic. If you didn't need the track, it would be as simple as gluing several to a 1/16" piece of acrylic (fairly straight forward with transfer tape).
The current rev is manufactured in sheets, and then machined apart after gluing. So individual pcbs would have to be from a new run.
It's not entirely implemented yet, but SPI communications are available. |

ah yep - i remember u mentioning that before. quite a pain as surely most people wanting them would want to integrate them into a bigger setup? tho i wouldn't mind just getting one to play with |

the unreleased quneo sort of has those too and is only going to be 200usd all in - or 2nd hand scs.3d/3m's can be got cheap. |
