Homebrew PCBs

The best thing to do is try. Get some transparency and print a board on 
it. Hold the transparency up to the light. If the lines are dense and 
clean then you are probably on to a winner. A lot of modern inks have UV 
blocking pigments so you don't always have to use black. For instance 
with Epson Durabrite inks I found green seems to work best. The 
transparencies come out looking fairly pale but they work well.

As with any pcb making system the secret of success is to keep 
experimenting.
