Subject: Re: Help me find eyelets

Apparently Mouser sells them for $26 for 500. You can get one type for
10 cents per from Far Circuits: "EYLETS .055 OD .042 ID FOR DOUBLE
SIDED BOARD THRU HOLES $0.10 EACH; OR YOU CAN BUY DIRECT FROM MOUSER
AT $26.00 FOR A PACKAGE OF 500."

info is a bottom of page.

I haven't tried these, but Far Circuits is a ham who sells many
ham-related PCB's at a very reasonable rate IMO. I assume he would
know what works well. I have no connection to them.
