Finding a vintage green colour copper clad

2015-10-31 by Brad

Hi there,

Wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of a vendor who has presensitized G10 boards that resemble older vintage boards, preferably in green? I’ve been scouring ebay, etc.. but everyone seems to show only the copper side and no mention of colour. This is a vintage retro project I’m working on so appearance matters.

Much appreciated for any advice!

Brad, I would suggest you just try to locate the G10 material and use the dry film available on ebay. Photo sensitive materials degrade over time and G10 has been replaced so long ago I doubt any you find would give satisfactory results. What size of material are you looking for? I know I have some in storage. The problem is I'm not sure where and exactly what sizes I have.

Hello--

You might try contacting "abcfab" via its eBay presence...

http://stores.ebay.com/PCB-Laminates-Copper-Clad/_i.html

...While the seller may not have any laminate of that description
available FS via the
web site, but he/she/they may have some older material stashed away in a
corner
of their warehouse. Be sure to offer a full description of exactly what
it is you're looking for.

Full disclosure: I've purchased laminate from this seller on two or
three occasions over the
past seven or eight years (including last month) and have been been
satisfied with the
material and service on all occasions. That aside, I have no financial
or other interest in
the business.
