I just bought these.  I intend to give 'em a shot this weekend, I'll let
you know how well they work.  So everybody understands what they are (I
didn't understand it 'til I got it):

the idea is that you xerox an etch-resist-positive picture onto one of
these big blue plasticky things.  You then iron the design onto your
plate, and then carefully peel it off -- supposedly, the copier toner acts
as an adhesive, and so you pull away all of the spots where the toner
wasn't.  I'm a bit afraid that this won't work for some of my itty-bitty
traces.

On the other hand, I still think this beats messing around with
photoresist...

I'll fill everybody in on monday.
