Re: Laser printers fo tt

2006-02-13 by Kevin Morgan

Hi Myc,

LOL. This is not my first try. I just haven't been reporting the 
failures!

Before the laser printer, I'd had some marginal success with 
photocopying onto the Staples paper at Kinko's, but it was a real 
pain, and the results were not that great. I had to do a lot of 
touchup, and then afterwards, I found that the image had been 
stretched, so I couldn't use my mill to drill the holes.

I've also had very good success with isolation milling, using the 
cutters from Think and Tinker and my home built CNC, but I don't 
think that would work very well for the smaller SMD packages, so I've 
been wanting to find a way to get TT to work for me.

Kevin
