I etched 12 boards for the cub scout noise organ project, as well call it. Well all looked good EXCEPT the color of the boards changed and I thought I had etched too much. Well I didn't etch enough.
This is the one problem I have had using some thick boards I got off of Ebay several years ago.
At 5 am this morn I was using a Sharpie pen and covering all the bright copper traces then have to re etch.
Thank goodness the layout is simple.
THEN have to double check all my traces then instruct two den leaders on how to solder and hopefully get all the parts in the right places.
I like the really transparent boards. Easier to tell when you have etch enough.
Good reason to use Muratic acid/Hydrogen Peroxide mix.
