Is there a way you could do this with a lot of vias in a grid to make it more flexible and either lasering around the vias in a tight circle to disconnect them or just straight up punching them out?

Ahhhh. Another one. I'm convinced there is not a single acronym/technical short word I pronounce [in my head] the same way as other people. C'est la Via.

I say "I went vi-ya this route."

Yet I do say vee-ya for the holes in pcbs. So I say the same word both ways at different times.

And I guess I say route both ways at different times too now that I mention it.

If not Canadian, then I'd guess American with electronics influence from someone (Commonwealthian) who'd always say 'vee', EEVBlog say.

(Fwiw route can be correctly pronounced differently in different circumstances: BrE is 'follow that [root] to the woodshop and [rowt] a nice profile on this piece'.)

... how were you pronouncing PCB?

You jest, but given this trend, I should have been expecting Pick-Buh or something!

It took Brian_K_White's reply before I figured you were talking about "via" and not "PCB" :)

(because you put "acronym" before "/short word")
