Inside the Modular LED Sweatshop :)
 
We make all of the connectors for Modular LED in house by hand so every so often my living room table turns into a sweatshop for connectors haha. Here you can see about 5000 that was done this week. Bottom of the the picture is the 3 types I was making.

Yes we design and assemble the PCB boards too. Unfortunately 2 inch is the shortest connector I can make however you can still place the boards right next to each other you just kind of pinch the connector like this:

Many hands make mistakes. If you want something done right, do it yourself. haha
