conductive ink on paper (or fabric)

conductive ink on paper (or fabric)

2005-06-27 by Nick Alexeev

Folks,

Does anyone know of a technique, which allows to make a circuit on 
paper?  Or firm, which specializes in conductive ink?  

The circuit is really simple.  It consists of 2 parallel traces about 
12in long with a 0.010in gap between them.

Thanks,
Nick

can you glue on some copper foil?

I would fear the ink will break if it is bent.

What are you making? a water sensor?

Why paper? You can get a flexible PCB made, of course, and stick that to 
paper.
