Check it out!
In the files section, look for heatguntoner001.jpg it's a scan of the
board after etching. The scan does not show the glossy toner effect
from the heat gun. I looked at it with a loupe before etching and the
toner did look like it blended together pretty good (my eyes are not
the best, but it did look pretty good). The etching again, went very
good. Tomorrow I will wash off the toner to see what the copper looks
like but I suspect it is going to be pretty crisp looking. Under the
loupe, it appears as though I should have etched for another minute,
but it is pretty darn good looking so far.
I don't want to remove the toner in case there is something wrong,
don't want another "IFU" to sleep on :-)
