Hey guys, i stuck up some preliminary work on the page

http://pcb.higginstribe.com

let me know what you think... obviously i'm not done writing everything, and i need a bunch more pictures... but I haven't had much time yet.

 

For the toner removal, I'm going to try some brake parts cleaner when I get home from school on my first baord. That is some strong stuff. I painted some pieces of the interior of my car, they didnt turn out that good, so I just hosed them down with this stuff and it took it right off. (hopefully the copper isnt going to be removed too :roll: )

Let me know if there is anything you want me to do. I'm going to try to think of some of the questions I had while I was researching, etching, ect, and I'll start a FAQ for it.

awesome, yeah, anything you could write about the process i'm sure i could work into the page. and of course, if you make any boards in the near future, i'd greatly appreciate if you took some pictures along the way if possible.

 

The brake parts cleaner works fine. You just have to watch, since it's in a spray can. It turns the toner to liquid and it runs all over the place. I use the cleaner and some paper towel or tissue to wipe the board down.
