A new way to make the Spirals
Hey guys to make the Spirals in the way you see on the pictures is literally pain in the ass, very slow and hard process, which is not cheep at all too. It is extreemly tricky to make only the inner ring and drill at least 55 wholes with 1mm diameter and then place the spirals there. So the question is how to make it better, faster, cheeper and everyone with a file to purchase them or scale them up and down? After making some research, I foun out that PCBWAY pcbway.com can actually make a copper layer with 15 onces per square foot, which is 500 microns or thickness or 0.5mm. It is 2 times less than what I made, but is more than enough for a decent current to go through. They can insulate the top and bottom sets of the spirals easily, but the other quston was are they able to connect both sets on the outer and inner ring? After chatting with their support, it seems that this is not a problem at all, because a technique called copper EDGING can be applied there. This is great because now the connection to the inner ring won't be mechanical anymore, but homogenous and super smooth. The next challenge, then, is how to leave 2 spirals from one set and 2 from the other set not connected to the inner ring, because they have to be connected directly to the central rod. And to solve this you can see on the images that we can make those 4 spirals end up with 1mm holes, where we can solder later on a copper wire and extend them on top and the bottom of the crystal, where they have to be connected perpendicularly to each other. I just sent a request to a freelancer on Fiverr who can turn this idea into a proper file format, and then we can upload it to PCBway, see the price for it, and check if it's actually doable. If this works, anyone can make the FlashMatrix Circuit super fast, precise, better, and cheaper, I believe.
