Unfortunately we cannot count the *DIY Trade Thread [Parts, PCBs, Panels]*
thread as a viable option since trading completed builds is not permitted
there. I've tried,but the moderator graciously removed the post.
As for the *For sale/trade* section, this does not appear to be a place
where small-time designers share their wares. Rather, it is predominantly
for the sale of second-hand commercial products.
