Toner Transfer is the simplest for one unit production.
materials and equipment needed are present in almost every household.
- design your board with whatever software you can get, can be a PCB design or any drawing program. (depends on your skill and $$$power).
- print this board on a laser printer (or have a photocopy made) on glossy paper. (positive mirror image)
- clean you raw board carefully with any kitchen abrasive cream
- apply (transfer) the image to the board with an hot iron.
- remove paper under (with) water.
- on failure repeat previous 4 steps until success.
- get some hidrocloric (muriatic) acid and some hidrogen peroxide (H2O2) or go and buy ferric cloride (nasty staining stuff), a plastic bowl and you are etching.
- the hardest part will be drilling the holes. a Dremel with an appropriate stand will do.
yes, I know, a little over simplified but accurate and effective....
