[sdiy] PCBs

[Sowa Roman]

I agree totally with Jim.
I don't do PCBs at home for a long time since I found out how nice and cheap
they can be made at the fab. Myself I only make boards that can be made with
Dremel cutting wheel.
Just for the look of well made soldermasked PCB it is worth it to pay a
little
extra and not have fingers burnt with chemicals.

But,
when I was making them home, I used also nitrogen acid (not sure if it's
proper
english name of it). Good resuld in short time, but little dangerous because
of
produced gass (hydrogen?).
