Darn, almost perfect transfer...

Well, I had a few minutes so I went out to the shop to transfer the artwork to the circuit boards. First one came out REALLY good except for two little spots that were easy to repair with a marker. The second board started out looking great, but by the time the paper came off, it was a mess. I think I know what I was doing wrong the last few times. Based on a lot of the posting here, I figured the "pressing" time at around 90 seconds or so. But with the pulsar paper, that is too long. Re- reading their instructions, they say about 10 to 20 seconds which is what i did today. Much better looking transfer, but poor adhesion. Then as luck would have it I am out of acetone. So, my next attempt will be to try a slightly higher temp and a few seconds longer. Will post results tomorrow if I have time to do it. Chris
