Mechanical PCB etching

2001-12-07 by Alan Marconett KM6VV

Hi to the list!

I usually hang out at the CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO list, but as I have been
working towards using a CNC to "etch" a board, I thought I'd post a few
comments here!

Not that I'm anti-chemical (I've etched a few boards before), but I'm
quite taken up with the CNC approach.

I'd like to mention Eagle, which has a PCB layout program, it can
generate the outline traces with an available script.

I'm even working on generating outlines myself from Gerber files.
