Well Ted,

I guess everything goes together. I want to figure out first what my depanelizing options are, then we figure out what press to use, how to press and last how the panel will be designed.

And it seems I don't have much choice. I will either not panelize them at all and run them in SMT inside fixtures, or I need to buy a router. Did I get it right?

Thanks,
Ioan
