Subject: My First PCB™

From: Brian Lalor <blalor@...>
Date: 2010-01-20

Just thought I�d share a couple of pictures of my first home-brewed
PCB, using the Pulsar toner transfer system:

It�s not perfect, but I�m pretty happy with my progress. I had
several pads that were accidentally joined to adjacent traces
(possibly due to too-heavy toner giving the green TRF too much to
stick to), and I�ve got a persistent problem with the LM335
temperature sensor I�m using: it seems to work fine for a while, but
then the temperature drops below zero. I�m thinking I still might
have a short somewhere, but haven�t had time to track it down, yet.

Thanks to everyone here for your help!
