Recently on EEVBLOG there was a thread where a guy mentioned that he was going to machine some shorting bars for banana jack out of copper. I made the suggestion to gold plate them to avoid copper oxide issue. Another guy mentioned making them like a PCB (like Fluke does). I did a little thinking and checking and am going to have some built. Probably 0.8 .. 1mm FR4 core, 15x35 mm, double sided 2 oz copper, ENIG gold finish. Anybody interested in some? Fab cost goes down rather quickly with quantity. Cost target is maybe $10 for 10 pieces shipped. OSHPARK cost would be around $5 for three boards on 1.6mm, 1 oz copper.
