I finally got my usb board to work, unfortunately I had to resort to ~45 jumper links per board (the other option was a four-layer board, since the usb traces need a solid groud plane above them).
I used the links that are in eagle libraries, so they are in 15,20 and 25mm lengths. Does any shop sell pre-bent wires in such lengths? I haven't yet seen one..
So assuming I can't get them from a shop, do you guys have some clever way to make them efficiently in not so small quantities? I already bought a tinned copper wire, but bending it with a tweezer to the correct lenght is not a very fun job. Any ideas for some gadget that might making them easier? I will be making 8 boards, so that is bending and cutting 360 links
