Homebrew PCBs

No doubt that's true, David. The fact that he did iron-on from
magazine paper got my attention, as that is the only way I can get a
good transfer from my Brother HL-2040 (many threads on that here on
the group). I use Altoid tins a lot in my homebrew radio/test
equipment stuff, and he's removed all of the paint and copper plated
them.  Interesting designs; I might have to try that.

By the way, I usually try brake fluid first when removing paint from
metal.  I have an old mic stand (D-104) that I'm refinishing, and I
soaked the flaking paint off with the stuff.
