I made myself today some 4MB 30-pin SIMMs, ending up in something quite tidy and nice, but totally useless because I made a mistake ordering the PCBs and were too thick.
What is the usual thickness?

My calipers indicate somewhere between 1.20cm and 1.25cm for the couple sticks I have laying around. I measured the edges where there are not traces or printing.
Thanks!
JLCPCB offers 1.0 and 1.2, so ordering 1.2 seems to be the right choice (the ones I got were in the default 1.6 thickness, which is far too much)
I just measured some 4 MB 30-pin SIMMS with calipers and got between 1.11 and 1.24 mm, for what it is worth.
