USB pcb

[Beef Boss]

I'd like to make a USB condom like the one on NODE but I'm confused about the website GitHub 

https://github.com/N-O-D-E/USB_Condom_V4

What are the files for...? I'd just like to get a PCB and USB port... Please don't answer with some smart Alec answer, I've never used this website and I don't like downloading files from a website I haven't used before. I mean, if I want to build one of these, you should expect that from me...

These are files that you would send to a PCB manufacturer, like allpcb.com. To download, push clone or download button, then select download as zip. Github is a website primarily meant for FOSS(Free and Open Source Software) project hosting, like OBS, Linux etc.

They're sold out there, and I can't find anything like this. But, thank you @ignaloidas

Those are gerber files used by pcb fabs for production. They contain all the data on your traces, vias, soldermask, board shape, etc. They are generated by a pcb design software such as eagle or kicad. If you want to make your own you could use a service like osh park and get some pcb's made. Just know that  those files are only for the pcb. You still need to buy all the parts required to assemble the board. If you have a bill of materials (BOM) for that board you can easily get the parts from a site like digikey or mouser.

You can very easily make your own without a PCB. Just cut a cheap normal USB extension cable and embed the little circuit explained in this link in the cable:

Basically, you only connect power and ground and not the data cables. That way no data at all, malicious or not, can get trough. Then a set of resistors is added that indicate to the device it is allowed to charge at high current. It should also work without those resistors, but charging will be limited to low power mode.

Maybe you can try WellPCB.Printed Circuit Board Fabrication and PCB Assembly Turnkey Services.
