Title: [FREE] send me materials and I'll make you extender cables
Post by: NghtRppr on July 21, 2011, 10:15:20 PM
It's simple. Find me all the raw materials and send them to me. I'll solder the cables together, make them look nice and pretty and send them back to you USPS.

It's really amazing the kind of community that formed around bit coins... people giving away services for free!??!?!!?

Yeah, but at the end it is worthless.

I buy cables for 2.5 USD including material from China - 3.5 USD including packaging, lots of 100.

You will have a hard time making sense out of this service if:

* You have to find the materials (time)
* Buy them in small lots
* Ship them left and right.

Even if you work at McDonalds it is not worth the time spent and you wont really save.

i admire the idea, and aplaud you
but as said before, its not worth it
PCIEx1 to PCIEx16 extenders/converters are less than 5 euro (7 bucks) on ebay, i doubt you can get the cable+slot and such for less, let alone the postage(x3!) and solder tin
and then there's the part of reassurance; no offence, but i trust robots that build these things 24/7 more than you when it comes to this much wires and this kind of (expensive!) equipment
im sure you can do a couple without mistakes, but can you really say that your 100% flawless?

again: thanks for the offer!
