don't worry, about it, I enjoy it to the fullest and I do not want to
change that comfortable for me state of inner happieness. Do you know
why I am happy? Because I found a technique that allows me to make
PCBs like we always wanted to- the way the laser printer works (you
feed the paper and it comes out - printed), the way the scanner works
(you feed the paper and - comes out as a scan of Marlyn Monroe, for
example). With Gootee paper and H200 laminator I just feed the paper
with the PCB (from ebay- thank you for the hint while back...) and I
HAVE IT in a mater of seconds. Stefan, to me it is a dream come true.

For a person that wants a quick PCB of predictable and repeatable
quality this is a nirvana come true and I know you wholeheartedly do
agree with me, like every other member on this fine board s well as
the boys in a copperclad room.

You know Stefan how hard I tried for months to follow the info from
this group and from the internet- nothing worked (everybody out there
claims being able to make TT boards but some of them have half inch
traces...). And now suddenly it does work and everyone who knows how
to read, knows it too, specially that Tom will publish the info about
H200 on his website, I trust.

We all can congratulte ourselves that WE were able to push the
envelope of TT. Would I be able to do it myself without you? Of
course not. Without Tom's website? Of course not. But all together WE
DID CAME UP with a new technique for using TT. We should be happy
about it, us grumpy engineers. How do you think the PCB mfrs feel
when they read it? Do they truly laugh?! I doubt it.

Ok, let me add to it, that I value highly Jeremy's comments on
thruhole plating from yesterday and today. Frankly, Markus's setup
intimidated me too much but both of them were crucial to my
understanding of the subject. Maybe one of us will publish something
in few days that will make it even simpler.. I don't doubt it, that
someone else already out there already figured it out, like Jeremy
did.

As far as that bloody IPA goes, I don't have anything more than
stories right now and I truly am not interested in finding more to
prove them. Anybody has access to internet searches and I am sure
it's out there. The mere fact I wanted to drop that discussion is
because I did not want to trash this bord with more comments, whcih
attract even more comments, even less needed. Mike
