[sdiy] PCB / Panel Manufacture

[Chromatest J. Pantsmaker]

I recommend "look mum, no computers" on youtube.  He's pretty funny and he
cobbles stuff together and it works.  His panels are black spray paint and
silver paint marker.
Here's one of him doing a VCO:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Kz8YopLTCQ
