Homebrew PCBs

Dave - my local Radio Shack here in Toronto sells wire wrap wire,
about 28 gauge, with  a thin insulation which reasily melts away when
soldered. It was on a spool about 2" in diameter. The one I have has
no RS number.  But perhaps it's worth checking in a store. It was on
sale, it looks like they are unloading some hobbyist stuff.
