Hi! I wanted to start building this project, but i have a bit of confusion around PCBs.
For what i've understood from hackaday project logs, i'll need one bottom PCB that contains the circuit and two coil PCBs. However, on the repo there are 4 gerbers for the coils. Which ones are used?
The gerbers for the circuit PCB are not included, right?

Hey!

Please read the documentation on https://hackaday.io/project/165112-pcbtc-gan-edition
For the current design you need the bottom pcb coil (https://github.com/NiklasFauth/pcbtc/tree/master/hardware/gerber_coil_01) and the top pcb coil (https://github.com/NiklasFauth/pcbtc/tree/master/hardware/gerber_coil_04)

I didn't release the gerbers for the mainboard pcb yet as it still contains some minor bugs and is not production-ready. I will do so probably next weekend :)

Just wondering where this project stands and I would like to make a few of them? Are the pcb mainboards ready? How did other's reproduce this project without the mainboard pcb files?

The 1.6 Gerbes are in the repo, also you can just open the original files in KiCAD and edit/export them yourself.

Exactly what adlerweb says.
Sorry for the confusion about the README.
