Hi, While bumbling around the Internet, I ran across a company that sure sounds good for easy PCB fab. It is "Pulsar Professional FX" at http://www.pulsarprofx.com/pcbfx/main_site/pages/start_here/index.html. Has anyone used these products? Are they as good as claimed? Or is it maybe "too good to be true?" Briefly, their system uses a thin PC board, their special toner transfer paper, a laminator with high/low heat settings, and laser paper for a silk-screen equivalent and a type of solder mask. They also recommend techniques (no cost here) for etching boards with a sponge or a kitchen plastic bag--no etching tank! Use your choice of etchant and laser printer. They offer a 30-day money back gaurantee. For my needs--one-off production, 1 or 2 layers max, minimal effort and time, and fairly low cost--this sounds ideal. After initial fab, I think I would also use a product called "Liquid Tin" for more corrosion resistance and a translucent green paint which they recommend to make the board look more pro. Again, I'm looking for any intel you might have about these products. Thanks, Jim
