[sdiy] making PCBs, what's your method?

[James Patchell]

There are several options....

There is the make it yourself at home option....

Or using PC board vendors....

Personally, from a time consumption point of view...I prefer using PC board 
vendors...I use Advanced Circuits....as I can get three very nice boards 
for a total of $99 (this includes legend and solder mask).  There are also 
several other companies that have similar, and maybe better, deals.  The 
point is, for that price, I cannot see myself hasseling with the chemicals 
and just the impact on my free time to actually do it 
myself...completely.  I do admit that this is a compromise between 
disposable income and free time....

Just my opinion.
