Homebrew PCBs

I've seen some posts here about people doing
the Laser Printer heat toner-transfer to PCB with 
the special sugar coated paper, but I've been 
doing it for quite a while with just plain 
regular paper.

The only difference is that the paper doesn't
float right off the PCB in water. You have to
soak the board in water, let the paper soften
then gently rub it off. 

In our experience, the traces stick to the PCB better 
with  this method in comparison to using the special paper.

I've done many boards reliably with 10 mil traces.

A few weeks ago, I posted a msg to another group:

There are also pics of an example board at

under the "Laser Toner PCB Etching" folder.
