Just got this from another list. Someone says DynaArt (one of the
makers of the laser toner transfer system) says:

... When I phoned the DynaArt people, the guy said there is a
better method devised for this and he explained it to me and I was
wondering if anyone has tried it.

This method uses the following: Purchase an Oven Bag (the clear see

through bags for cooking turkeys in the oven) also a Heat Gun (hot
air paint stripper gun set at the highest heat setting) and also a
Shop Vac (vacuum cleaner)

Place the art work onto the circuit board and tape into position.
Then place the board into the oven bag and insert the vacuum hose
inside the bag and seal it with a rubber band. Turn on the vacuum,
then use the hot air gun to heat the art work on the paper and the
board for about 2 to 3 minutes and that's it. Place the board in
water right after heating and the paper floats away leaving the art
work on the board.

So, whatdya think?
