Over at the bird site I stumbled over these 0.1" pin headers. Only the first and last pin is through-hole and all the pins inbetween are SMT. This is a great space-saver for PCBs that are intended to be inserted into DIP chip sockets.

User DragonBallEZ at the bird site also provided a link to a Japanese Retailer selling these pin headers: monotaro.com/p/4368/7578/

I hope there is a way to get them in Europe without having to ship them halfway around the globe.

I need a momentary button switch (a reset button) that can solder into one of these through-hole pairs, more often used for jumper pins. I can't find any with simply through pins - such buttons always have the rounded fin connectors with an in-bored hole.

Anyone know where I can find such a button? Thanks.

When a #PCB board designer, manufacturer and seller offers a #3D file of a board and all its measurements are off grid from the real one... 🙄

I'm looking at #Waveshare!
What do you think how I should design a fitting case for it? Tons of test prints and wasted filament? Damn... 😤
