Thanks Adam,

  I'm in the US.  I found the smallest $85 at Think & Tinker, Ltd.  
It's still too much for a beginner since I will never use up all of 
it. I did most my boards on presensitized copper clads.  It turned 
out prety good but I still want some experiments with dry film.

  I just wonder if someone have bought the stuff from Think & Tinker, 
Ltd. and sell it on Ebay or something like that for a small quantity.
