There's gotta be someone on here that has access to 'mass produce' PCB's???

The cost of doing a batch of PCB's would be minimal, even for a small batch. I use a place here in WA to get all my circuit boards professionally fabricated, and for protoyping they charge $247 for the first panel and $55 for each additional panel after that. The panels I use are 600x450mm I think and could fit a decent number of each board. The cost should be similar over East.

I guess it's the labour of soldering etc that would be time consuming

Personally I don't mind either way, as long as there's clear instructions.

I like little projects like this, although my exhaust sensor project never quite worked as I expected, and halfway through the build instructions, they note that it's not accurate...
