    Default Best place to get circuit board supplies?

    Just need some one sided board supplies for a few circuits I want to build. Where is the best place to get these from? I need boards, saw, etching materials etc.

    A good source for inexpensive surplus SS board is Electronic Goldmine.

    They have a version they call paper cut. It is very thin and somewhat flexiable. Very easy to work with.

    If you need a stiffer board they offer others.

    I did not like the last batch of DS board I got from them. SS was still good.

    Are you going to do toner transfer or photo resist. I use the toner transfer system from PulsarProFx (see my sig).

    I was thinking about using a toner system cause it seems simpler.

    I cant find any toner on the electronic goldmine site though? :/

    The PulsarProFx.com site has instructions for making PCB's using their toner transfer method.

    FWIW you can do toner transfer using old magazie pages and save some money. They are right.

    But with the Pulsar system you will have a lot less trouble getting it to work. The transfer paper they use is execlent.
