John,
Idea is great, no doubt: bake laser toner onto a water soluable paper
and then transfer that ink onto the copper. After that, one needs to
soak the PCB in water and the paper will dissolve. One major problem
I see in it is that it is just too ideal to be true, with all the
boundry problems on the very first layer of paper- what really
happens there? Dextrin paper was supposed to do just that (and
supposedly does it and we've been persuing that dextrin paper for
long- now way to make it. Too tru to be beautiful... My opinion is
from the sorts if it looks like a duck.
Stefan,
That's my non scientific method of distinguishing dream from reality,
time will tell and I want to be wrong.
As far as what I said about this forum that we pretty much can close
it down after I posted laminator+Staples paper solution, it still is
true: no other major breakthru was made so far. Before that method
make a PCB was a hit and miss, now it's sure thing. I keep debating
if I should get rid of a UV exposure lamp.
Oh, here is a manual for newcomers:
