<br>
Could anyone recommend a UK (or European at a push) source for<br>
cost-effective low-volume SMD assembly?<br>
<br>
I already have a supplier for one-offs (me) and another for larger<br>
volumes/values where a chunky setup charge isn't a problem. What I don't<br>
have is anything in the middle - someone to do, say, 25 simple boards<br>
using the sort of cheap stencil you get free with prototype PCBs.<br>
<br>
Does such a thing exist? Or am I going to have to bite the bullet and<br>
buy one of those toaster oven thingies?!<br>
<br>
Thanks for any pointers,<br>
