So I do have an update,

I asked them for photos of what they have done and came through!
I got to say though, for the price of their product they are quite helpful,
yes they are probably hoping on bigger orders and such but from their customer support
I am quite happy. Though you have to keep in mind that there is a language barrier,
it´s quite subtle, but it leaves you wandering sometimes a little bit, if they understood right or not.
But even with that, they reply fast to e-mails, so you could always ask for further clarification, I guess...

I will include the photo that they send me, and when I get them I will do some macros and comparisons / overlay with the eagle file to inspect tolerances.

Cheers!
If you are an engineer and you are not tired...
You are doing it wrong!

I will reply as I have promised with the comparison.

I have a compact "dslr-y" camera so, I couldn´t get much better with the perspective error.
So dimensions are not near accurate but the comparison is made for showing how the details
came out.

Mind you these are 2 boards out of 100. But from what I saw only the SOT-723-3 devices were
just a little bit chopped at the corners.

So for the price, I am really happy, but I have not gotten near their minimum specifications.
For example min width and distance between traces was 6mil... Mine minimum were at 10mil.

Hope it all help!
Cheers

Am I seeing SMD pads covered with solder mask?  ???

Hmmm? No? Just the top and bottom copper and silk screen overlaid to a photo of the actual boards.

And cause I have a perspective error with the camera, what you can only make out is how well, or not, the etching went.


Edit: Ha! Of course I have not thought about it, problem with camera is easy to solve! Just use a scanner! That might take a day or two...

They sponsored me for a YouTube video and their service was great. FAST shipping
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
