[Homebrew_PCBs] Re: direct inkjet printing

2006-05-12 by Robert Hedan

My solution for the C84 is to lift the upper part of the chassis by 1/4" so
that I could use a custom 'bed' for the PCB.  That way the traction roller
didn't come in contact with the PCB surface, only the bottom of this drawer.
I am removing the center of the top rollers leaving only the ones of each
end.  That idea also lets me implement that 'auto-centering' idea for
double-sided PCBs.

Now if I can only have enough sunny days to work on building it.
