Hi all,

I'm looking for suppliers of board materials.

It seems that Think and Tinker are the most common and offer a decent
price (about $7.00/sq ft, plain, non-photo)

But I was wondering where you get boards, both plain and sensitized.

I'm in the States and have found some suppliers but they all offer
widly different prices, but only FR-4

I am also interested in finding a supplier of the phenolic or non-FR-
4 boards as the etching process on FR-4 chews up cutters.

Can you offer any suggestions ?

I did find a wholsale place for FR-4 that prices out at $5.00 a
square foot, but the boards are large and they have a $5.00 cutting
fee.

If this is a good price, and anyone wants to get together for a group
order, let me know.

But, if you know where to get phenolic, PLEASE let me know !


Dave
