Homebrew PCBs

No confusion.  Thanks for the link - it was interesting!

I don't have experience with an exchange medium that prevents sending URLs so hadn't expected that.

I love to learn new stuff.  I once got a fortune cookie - "You learn from your mistakes ... You will learn much today."  Since then, I try to learn much every day!

Donald.
