Subject: Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Re: Screen printing emulsion

From: Dan Pickard <dlpwebmail@...>

I just cropped and removed extraneous images from a file someone had
uploaded previously of his tests using silk screen emulsion as photo
etch resist. He just brushed it on. However, as per his later
messages, which emulsion you use is very important. Not all will stick
to copper.

Thanks, Steve
I'm new to the group thing. I found it, Thanks.
As for the other posts: the screen printing of PCB works out perfect for high-run production but it's way to costly for one-off boards. The ink holds up under etchant for hours. I had a few boards screen printed for the lab at $100 for two. You have to pay that set-up fee :-(
