Homebrew PCBs

All,

Contrary to popular belief ( and because I did not know any better when I
started ) I use a Brother H-5250 and H-5370 1200dpi printers with very good
results when used with Pulsar Transfer Paper. I did not read the negative
recommendations until it was too late.

Some of my project can be seen at:

All of my Toner Transfer projects were printed with the Brother Priinter.

As can be seen, I get very GOOD resolution at 6/6 traces. Most of the
project are 8/8.

Take the PCB Challenge, as I have documented my results on the blog, see if
your printer will do as well.

I like the Brother Printer for Pulsar Toner Transfer Projects ( but then,
it is the only printer that I have :-)

So, it can be done!
