Subject: Advice for first board

From: "twoube" <john.brewer@...-electric.com>
Date: 2005-01-07

I've been kind of overwhelmed by the variety of
toner/printers/paper/process issues discussed here.
There's a lot of great info, but it's confusing to know
how to best start.

I'd like to make a first board. Easy stuff, no fine pitch,
no plated through holes, single sided, 80's technology
stuff.

Can someone point me to, or recommend a best first process
to try (along with materials?).

I'm leaning toward trying to laser print to a
sticky label backing, and ironing to a supercleaned
board.

Am I on the right track? Details on the process for this
first attempt greatly appreciated.

Thanks
John
