I have a gerber Tool that allows me to make a panel of
patterns. In this case I set it up to make 12 patterns
an a full sheet. I used one sheet for the top and
another sheet for the bottom.

I am glad that I did set it up for 12. I used 8 of the
tops before i got a good transfer.

I make the Gerber prints on my inkjet then I go to
Kinkos's to make the TT sheets. In this case I could
have put 6 tops and 6 bottoms on the same sheet.

This was the best for me. Until I have more confidemce
in this process it is easier for me to waste some
paper.

I have 2 pacls of DynaArt paper I bought about 10
years ago. I had no idea how well it would work. The
board i made today is good enough for testing the
design. It also showed me I migh be able to use 0805
components instead of 0603s.
