Subject: Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Solder mask for inkjet

From: William Nelson <wnnelson@...>

I beleive I may have stumbled onto a way to use Eagle for the mask. I finally found out how to do
copper pours for the ground plane (this will save a lot of etching but use more ink). I use this
same feature but only have the pads showing before the pour. I can isolate each pad at whatever
distance I want. I can show that layer as black and then do a print and it should align perfectly.
I have not done it yet but the theroy is there.
