This type of question canbe an introduction to spam or it may just be a mistake in using the correct verb. Assuming you meant "make" instead of "use," it is still a very broad and unanswerable question. HOwever, if you are a hobbyust new to getting your PCB's made commercially, here are some suggestions that might help.

Here is one place to shop for manufacturers: http://**********.com/
I don't think it includes Oshpark, which I frequently use: http://Oshpark.com/

Edit: For whatever reason, AAC management doesn't want you to have the price comparison link. It is biased, of course, but all such services are biased by the list of businesses surveyed.

Here are the vendors scanned in the censored link above:

I have used that link myself and have never been spammed by it, nor has another site been spammed (that I am aware of) where the person who provides that service is an active member.

Just PM'd you with the link. You will need to remove the spaces for it to work. Can you check it out?

I can see why the blocked list is not public, I do wish there were an easier way to check a link out, though.

As for my comment about Oshpark not being included, maybe it is, but I did a query once, and it was not included. However, I specified a resist color other than purple, so maybe that was why its didn't show in the results.

Edit: Thanks, Bertus. Will wait for jrap to check it out. It is a quick way to get an approximate cost and a feel for the market before ordering. Lowest list cost is not always where I go.
