My First PCB™

2010-01-20 by Brian Lalor

Just thought I�d share a couple of pictures of my first home-brewed  
PCB, using the Pulsar toner transfer system:

It�s not perfect, but I�m pretty happy with my progress.  I had  
several pads that were accidentally joined to adjacent traces  
(possibly due to too-heavy toner giving the green TRF too much to  
stick to), and I�ve got a persistent problem with the LM335  
temperature sensor I�m using: it seems to work fine for a while, but  
then the temperature drops below zero.  I�m thinking I still might  
have a short somewhere, but haven�t had time to track it down, yet.

Thanks to everyone here for your help!
