Homebrew PCBs

Alexandre,

Thanks for the reply!

That sounds very good.  And I DO have a couiple of older HP LaserJets here that I could use (an LJ III and an LJ II).

I will search the group's archive for more information.

Thanks again!

Regards,

Tom Gootee

    Tom, I'm still using an old laser printer fusing unit, as my laminator,
and I get very consistent and repetable results every time. Yesterday I did
a pinboard (SMD to DIP adaptor) for an Atmega 128 - 64 pin MQFP - with no
errors whatsoever.

    I'd suggest you taking this path, maybe it can help :)

    Greetings,
