Me too. Thanks for taking the time to go through the process and
explain the equipment, it is quite interesting to see how one does it
with the proper tools. I have had fair success so far using laser
prints to Avery label paper backing (as suggested here in one of the
links) and using the heat method to apply these to the bare copper
board. Then etch. My stuff is mostly for audio, with occasional
surface mount parts, but mostly thru hole. I just bought this item
a Seal Dry Mount press to see if it helps the process to be more
reliable.

I'll let everyone know how it works once it is delivered.
