Markus,
       The aluminum window channel used in my machines is only 
available in the US and Canada. We can buy it here as scrap. If you 
have a PCBoard milling question just ask.


       Nothing beats the copier/etching method! I have tried all the 
methods to date except the URBAN LEGEND Inkjet/floor polish method.


                                           John
