Hi Gary

I make my own PCB's and plenty of them at that. I have even made a web page
detailing my exploits at
http://www.mollyology.com/ELECPCB.php

Ask any questions after reading this as my experiences of some of the other
techniques e.g. the ironing technique that Ian L uses have been mixed at
best. I put this down to the fact that I cannot iron which makes me wonder
what Ian L does in his spare time ;-)) (only kidding Ian).

I achieve results to mount the smallest surface mount components 95% of the
time but sometimes a board goes horrible wrong. I buy the pre-sesitised
boards as this is easier but not cheaper.

As you will see from the pictures I can get some really fine artwork done.

As a final note: I would look at www.olimex.com/pcb for prototypes and they
will also put several on one 6 by 4 PCB for you (same or different design).
All for around 20 quid depending if you are single or double sided. Note
their requirements though but they do take Eagle files direct.

Ian

Hi, I originally asked the question "does anyone make there own
pcb's."

Started new thread as this is what i have found.. and i think it will
be useful to those on here that dabble in electronics etc.

Just an update found a great site in yahoo groups, that has everything
sbout any PCB you want to make using various methods!

And being Yahoo group .. you can ask question, think it has about 2000
members.

You have to join but that takes about 10 seconds.
