Subject: Laser removal of etch resist

From: "Philip Mac Cabe" <Philip@...>
Date: 2006-05-24

Hi all,

Do I see another wheel being reinvented here?

A UV laser works on photo resist. Someone has already done this with
a flatbed plotter and a UV Laser from a CD player I think??

Photo resist coated board is ubiquitous and (relatively) cheap
compared to finding some other resist which could be lasered away
cleanly.

What am I missing ;-)

Philip.
