looked good in my hp4l, but board would not go through, and when I
tried to convert to flat path I gave up it was too complicated for me
with all those gears.

It will however take about 3 or 4 sheets of standard a4 at a time
without a jam, so I think if I could get copper foil then that would
work, then epoxy glue it to some board before etching

For the moment I'm happy with the uniball paint pen (px203 white) in a
plotter, but useless for small tracks etc due to pen tip width.
