Re: Cheap copper clad boards

2012-04-09 by John

If you feel up to it, I would like 2-orders. 4" X 6" is my favorite size. Actually whatever is shippable! a final target size of 3" x 5" is also a good size since my printer will do that size card. The .025 thickness should work well in the laminator. 
As I recall, I paid $20.00 for a 12" x 12" x 0.032"(1/2oz.) sheet from DigiKey. The laminator specs call for a max of 0.040" stock. 

If you choose to do this, make it easy on yourself! Gasolne is around $4 per gallon here. I don't want to take undue advantage of your generous offer..

Should you care to contact me direct, jferrell13@...m
