Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] TT Method via Kitchen Oven

Steve: Look at message 
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/Homebrew_PCBs/message/22175
 I used a preheated block of steel and a clamp  ... I have had 
consistent results and rarely a failure ...
the failure is usually poor cleaning or a finger print. The 
thermo-couple used plugs into my DVM
The steel block was a "cut-off" and I used some fine grit sand-paper to 
lap the steel
My method is not the same as yours but it shows you are on the right track
I just bought an Lexmark E260D printer and will try the DLP(Direct Laser 
Printing) method ... as soon as Mark gives out the needed modifications ...
