Subject: Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] using the hot stamp foil.. itself as a trace??

From: Stefan Trethan <stefan_trethan@...>
Date: 2003-05-13

i have serios doubts if that may really work...

is it conductive at all?

i don't think the solder would adhere. (yes i know on may solder two icecubes together with the right
flux but...)

please try it someone who has this foil.

regards
stefan
