Well I’m actually under 18 as well. I’ll ask for help when needed.

ok let me know if you need any help with mass 3d print or anything else
I’ve started work on first few prototypes, completed the first side of the board today and going to do the other side, tomorrow

Update: I have a prototype working but I need to make a new board as having components either side is way too challenging to place and reflow. Estimated to be ready for first sale start of May. Will post updates later on.

Literally the only reason I haven’t pulled the trigger yet…
I have placed the order for assembled PCB’s.
This is the enclosure, I do not have the images of the PCB on me, if you want to see them look at the GitHub.

Development has stopped due to framework releasing a official card.

Hey Josh, what’s going to happen to the developments you’ve made so far…?
Don’t Stop! Make it thinner and slimmer!
there is no point in developing anything thinner.

@Josh_Cook I totally get you stopping development, especially since the official adapter will be 2.5Gb vs 1Gb. Have you any interest in developing any other expansion cards? I still want to support independent developers where I can. Especially since I just pulled the trigger on the new models (finally they launch HALLELUJAH)

I’m working on a fair few other models like VGA, and miniDP. These have all been on the back burner but as my interest has now shifted due to the ethernet expansion card I will be able to work on these other expansion cards.

I think if you’d concentrate on finding a supplier for an alternative foldable sockets, then keeping the project running would totally make sense.
I’d definitely buy a foldable version that would stick to original dimensions instead of an oversized card.

Implementing a double-height card (that doesn’t interfere with the feet) with those like smaller VGA ports without the screws could probably work. That’d be nice to see.

I have no plans to continue development, hell I’d delete everything relating it. I do not care about this project that I started. I’ve already worked way too much on this. If their expansion card was more expensive and had similar specs I’d happily continue. I have better things do. thanks to anyone who gave feedback, the github repo is still there. If anyone wants to do anything with it just fork it and away you go.
