That's right, I'm not using photosensitive boards.  I'd like to do 
that because it will give the best results, but I can't locate any 
positive resist from a local source and don't really want to mess with 
more chemicals (I live in a rural area and eventually we drink what we 
put in the sink/toilet/ground).

My inkjet transfer method is an adaptation of the paper toner 
transfer.  It eliminates the paper disolving step.  It's more like the 
press-and-peel sheets others have mentioned.  Cost for the inkjet 
method is probably between the two.

Regards,
Dennis
