Club Jameco borrows from Etsy and Kickstarter, lets DIYers design, sell and buy project kits

Club Jameco borrows from Etsy and Kickstarter, lets DIYers design, sell and buy project kits

Though electronics hobbyists may not have the same resources that the Maker Sheds of the world have to design, package and sell do-it-yourself kits, electronics component distributor Jameco plans to change that. With Club Jameco, enthusiasts can pitch their kit ideas to the electronic component wizards in Belmont, CA and if a project is deemed viable for production, they'll be provided with feedback and have their idea posted for public comment. After the creation of step-by-step kit instructions, a list of materials and undergoing final approval, kits will be sold to the adoring masses.
