[sdiy] drilling pcb boards...sore throat

[harrybissell at wowway.com]

Once you start worrying about exposing (ok press and peel...) etching,
drilling, and then TINNING your PCBs you should seriously consider BUYING
them from any of the excellent online board houses.  Buy four or five and sell
the others on the DIY list... usually someone else is thrilled to get them.
A board might cost $20 after all is done... can you make your own for that
price ?  What is your time worth ?  You could be designing MORE boards...

Yes... I know that in the old days we used to dig the copper ore out of the
hills by hand and drwy it into wire with our teeth... but really...   :^P
