PCB Manufacturers, Part & Tool Suppliers, etc.

PCB Manufacturers

They can produce the PCBs that you designed with Fritzing. Ultimately, we would like to support batch orders from groups of people.
These are some manufacturers known to work well with the designers or DIY community. They provide helpful services and have low prices on low quantities. However, PCB manufacturers usually do not assemble your boards!

See also the listing of suppliers at OpenCircuits.

PCB Assemblers

Anyone have a recommendation? Otherwise just learn how to solder.

Electronic Parts Suppliers

The main international suppliers with extensive catalogues are Bürklin, Conrad, Digi-Key, Farnell, Futurlec, Mouser, and RS. Ultimately, it would be helpful to generate order lists for these directly from your Fritzing circuit design.

See also the listings at Arduino Playground, OpenCircuits, or try out the new meta-catalogue search engine Octopart.

PCB DIY Tools

Tools, machines and stuff to make boards by yourself.
