- There is laser -> transfer process available for making PC board resist
- patterns using a laser printer. I've got something on it at home that I've
- been looking for since this was originally posted.
-
- Going from memory, it used special paper/film that you run through a copier
- or a laser printer. You do some intermediate steps that produce something
- that can be dry transfered to a copper clad circuit board. The 'kit' came
- with enough material to make several sheets of transfers and they worked out
- to about $1.50-$2.50 a sheet. I just have a sales sheet/order blank for it
- and have not actually used it, but I don't see why it wouldn't work.
-
- I'll look for it again this weekend.
